- a3w 2mo agoTUI? Aren't VS Code, Claude Code, Hermes Agent, Goose or Letta harnesses, but with UI, too?
- edgyquant 2mo agoVSCode at least is a GUI
- kaicianflone 2mo agoWhich it’s kind of strange VSCode ghcp lacks basic attributes like context % used compared to some TUIs where it’s default.
- u8080 2mo agoThere is a round icon at the right bottom, where white arc is how much context used - hover for extra info.
- kaicianflone 2mo agoFantastic tq I feel stupid because I’ve seen that for a while now. Do you know more about the autocompaction process? I could use some help there too with ghcp. I don’t see my context going up while abusing smaller context models with long inputs nor do I see a compaction indicator after turns.

- francislavoie 2mo agoCan be a TUI, can be a GUI.
- tokai 2mo agoI thought the harness was mainly a TAI (tangible AGENT interface). Its a harness for the agent, not a user interface. That is bolted on top of the harness.
- alienbaby 2mo agoA harness is any wrapper around llm calls that manipulates llm interactions to achieve the process for which it is designed. Claude code et al are just one type of harness, focusing on writing code. The kind of UI used to interact with the harness and underlying models does not matter.
