Hi, I'm Sean, the builder behind NextEleven.

Harness is the personal work assistant I've been building around my own projects. It reads and edits repositories, runs tools and keeps resumable sessions, with a terminal interface and a local web UI.

You choose the exact provider:model route. Optional fallbacks follow the order you selected. Work briefs keep an outcome, acceptance criteria and verification commands beside the project. Preparation can save that brief without calling a model; actual implementation and verification happen in the agent run.

The source is public under MIT. The current developer prerelease is v1.4.0-beta.2, with native CLI downloads for macOS Apple Silicon/Intel, Linux ARM64/x86-64 and Windows x86-64. Download the matching binary and verify its checksum before running it:

https://github.com/seanebones-lang/harness/releases/tag/v1.4.0-beta.2

The Linux downloads require glibc 2.39 or later. The Windows download needs the Microsoft Visual C++ v14 x64 runtime; the release page links to Microsoft's official download.

The pinned quickstart starts with a brief you can prepare without a model account, then walks through setup, route show and doctor:

A local backend or your own provider account is needed for model work, and that provider may charge for usage. This is a developer evaluation release; native automated checks do not establish fresh-machine interactive acceptance on every OS. Optional desktop/editor sources are separate from these CLI downloads.

The short silent overview includes actual CLI preparation and a recorded local UI example with a synthetic demo provider. It does not claim a model built the example API or that every optional integration has been validated.

Tools act with your account's authority. DeadBolt checks admission after review and before registered tool effects; it is not arbitrary-code isolation. Review proposed changes and check actual results. A completed turn is not proof that your acceptance criteria passed.

I'd value concrete feedback on setup, recovery and the short path from an ambiguous task to a working, verified result.
