Harness-Zero: Harness Distillation via Agent-as-Harness
Why this job: says: distillation; topics: distillation
What it does
- 21.0 points macro-average on the base model (23.3% → 44.3%) across three domains — a 90.1% relative improvement.
- The distilled model under the minimal harness alone (44.3%) beats the base model with the optimized harness still attached (41.7%).
- Agent-as-harness > code-as-harness. the same evolved harness applied through a harnessing agent averages 81.1% vs. 78.1% for direct mounting on frontier models.
- 82.3% recovery of 28 harness-exclusive behavior patterns (memory, skill, tool, middleware) — direct evidence the behavior moved into the weights.
