The agent harness performance optimization system.

What's new

Skills, instincts, memory, security, and research-first development for Claude Code, Codex, Opencode, Cursor and beyond.

Key details

  • Skills, instincts, memory, security, and research-first development for Claude Code, Codex, Opencode, Cursor and beyond.
  • Language: English | Português (Brasil) | 简体中文 | 繁體中文 | 日本語 | 한국어 | Türkçe | Русский | Tiếng Việt | ไทย | Deutsch | Español Warning Official sources only.
  • Install ECC only from verified channels: the GitHub repository github.com/affaan-m/ECC, the npm packages ecc-universal and ecc-agentshield, the GitHub App, the plugin slug ecc@ecc, and the project website ecc.tools.
  • Third-party re-uploads and unofficial mirrors are not maintained or reviewed by the project and may contain malware.

Results & evidence

  • | ECC Pro + GitHub App Install free · Private repos from $19/seat/mo | Sponsor ECC Fund the open-source project | Community Discord · Q&A · Show and Tell | OSS stays free.
  • That's why a single maintainer ships weekly across 7 harnesses.
  • Access to 67 agents, 281 skills, and 94 legacy command shims, plus hooks, rules, memory, continuous learning, and AgentShield security scanning.

Limitations / unknowns

  • Generalization outside curated tasks is still unclear.

Next-step validation checks

  • Reproduce one claim with a public baseline and fixed evaluation settings.
  • Check robustness on out-of-distribution or long-context cases.
  • Track whether independent teams report matching results.

What's new

An open protocol for the moment a program needs a person.

Key details

  • The people who can unblock them do not, and those people are still the ones accountable for the decision.
  • Handoff specifies what happens in between: how a request for a human decision is stated, how it reaches someone, how their answer comes back, and what record survives afterwards.
  • The claim the whole design is built to support is deliberately narrow: One human answer, delivered to your agent exactly once, as typed data, authorizing exactly one effect.
  • Every clause of that is load-bearing: - One human answer.

Results & evidence

  • No hard numbers surfaced in the source text; treat claims as directional until benchmarks appear.

Limitations / unknowns

  • A field a renderer cannot draw is a field a human cannot answer, so unknown field types are rejected rather than degraded into a text box.

Next-step validation checks

  • Reproduce one claim with a public baseline and fixed evaluation settings.
  • Check robustness on out-of-distribution or long-context cases.

  • Generalization outside curated tasks is still unclear.

Next-step validation checks

  • Reproduce one claim with a public baseline and fixed evaluation settings.
  • Check robustness on out-of-distribution or long-context cases.
  • Track whether independent teams report matching results.
