Excalidraw Diagram for the Harness

I linked the Excalidraw diagram because the visuals make the harness architecture click way faster than watching logs scroll by. It shows the initializer flow, the looped coding sessions, and how subagents keep service-specific context out of the main orchestrator.

Pros

+Clear mental model for how the harness is structured
+Highlights the initializer + loop pattern and state handoff
+Makes it easier to extend the system with new services/subagents

Cons

-It’s an architecture diagram, not a step-by-step setup guide
-You still need to read the repo to map the diagram to implementation details
