Agents in front of customers
A model change shows up in their experience before it shows up in yours.
Harness Watch / forward-deployed operations / monthly
Every model release, a verdict.
Models change every month. Harness Watch reruns your agent's scorecard on each relevant release and tells you, with evidence, whether to adopt, hold or switch, what you can now delete, and when your agents have earned more autonomy.
Sample release verdict · synthetic example
Monthly verdict
- Release
- A new version of the model behind the research assistant.
- Scorecard
- Quality up on long documents, median wait unchanged, cost per accepted task down, no control violations.
- Verdict
- Adopt behind the gate next sprint.
- Delete
- The summarization pre-pass. The new model handles long inputs directly.
- Autonomy
- Hold at review-before. Revisit at the quarterly review.
When to bring us in
For agents your business already depends on.
More than one model in play
Several providers, several settings, and no single view of which one is best now.
Leadership wants the evidence
The question is whether the agents are getting better, cheaper or riskier, and the answer belongs in writing.
What the month includes
Six parts. One monthly readout.
Harness Watch runs on the cases and regression gate your team already owns, whether your engineers built them or a Harness Review, an Upgrade Sprint or a build set them up.

Before we start
Do we need a TeqEngine build first?
No. Harness Watch starts from your existing cases and regression gate. A Harness Review or an Upgrade Sprint sets them up when you need them.
Does every release mean a migration?
No. A release is adopted when it passes your gate and improves your scorecard.
Which models do you track?
The models and settings your agents use, plus the candidates worth comparing. We don't resell models or platforms.
Does this replace our monitoring tools?
It runs on them and adds the judgment: what good means, what changed, and what to do about it.
