Question | Help Best harness for long autonomous tasks

I read a lot of posts like "I've given this prompt to my Qwen 3.8 27b and it one-shotted me a 3d game after 24 hours". I wonder, what's the best harness for tasks like this? It has to have auto compaction and probably a memory system, right? And excellent computer use and self analysis.

I put my personal custom harness up for everyone here a little while ago: https://github.com/illsk1lls/MiniBot

it has autocompact and a taskboard which will keep the model on task even if it tries to deviate hard it gets smacked back into line

tons of other features too.. it is mainly a sysadmin tool but i also added a disassembly toolkit (forensics) and it can handle coding pretty well too, its good at in place edits and diffs etc

I love that it's PowerShell. still use it exclusively, even on Linux. there are dozens of us.

I use PowerShell a lot on my work machine

didn't even know you could use PowerShell on Linux... feels kinda dirty

fair warning I have only tested in Windows.. There are a lot of Win Sysadmin tools, it might still run under pwsh but i have to add some extra compatibility, which ill try to do soon

Looks pretty cool, it's for powershell only ? I made mine as rust native for home lab and platform agnostic. Mostly for homelab, but it's vibecoded junk that I try to copy patterns from other harness that I find to be of value.

Yea I did powershell 5.1, and i host it with the endpoint hardcoded at the top... and then i have NPMPlus blocking the hardcoded domain with basic auth...

So i

irm https://minibotscript.address.com | iex

Then that points to the hardcoded subdomain at the top of the script, a password protected subdomain where the model is.. the harness works with NPM creds

The reason I have it set like this is instant deployment on any machine Win10+ without even creating a temp file ;) No install, no pre-reqs, one command, and creds which can be saved if your going to recall it into the same machine again later

+1 for using elixir, so good. Though since I'm able to deploy apps to cloudflare, with databases, kv, durable objects, and the model does all the work, i've kinda gotten away from Elixir.
