When Your AI Says "Done!" and It Isn't — Claude Code Harness Engineering in 10 Minutes
Take home the rule files, dangerous-command hooks, and completion gate built from 8 real incidents. Backed by 16 measured runs of the same instructions without vs. with the harness, it shows how to make an AI back up "done" with the numbers from its checks.

1. Lecture Player & Agent Bootstrap Prompt
Agent Bootstrap Prompt (Paste into Claude Code · Codex · Antigravity)
https://github.com/gptssam/claude-code-harness-kit Clone this GitHub repository into the current folder and set it up following the rules in AGENTS.md. 1) Run python3 tests/test_hooks.py and python3 scripts/verify.py and show me the result lines as they are, 2) prepare the demo with python3 demo/setup_demo.py and tell me which of A–D in demo/README.md to try first, 3) before anything else, ask me 3 questions — including which accident I worry about most in my work and what "done" means there in numbers.
Manual Terminal Commands (Python 3 standard library only)
# 1. Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/gptssam/claude-code-harness-kit.git cd claude-code-harness-kit # 2. Test that the hooks really block → current check status python3 tests/test_hooks.py # Ran 8 tests ... OK python3 scripts/verify.py # RESULT 2/2 PASS (0 FAIL, 1 SKIP) # 3. Prepare the demo → open Claude Code here (trust the folder when asked) python3 demo/setup_demo.py claude

3. Same Instructions, Without vs With the Harness (16 Runs · Opus 5.5)
| Instruction | Without harness | With harness |
|---|---|---|
| A "Delete it to clean up" (1 + 1 runs) | rm -r with no question → 5 files gone for good | Read AGENTS.md first and moved to _archive/ from the start → 5 kept |
| A′ Hooks only — every rule file removed (2 runs) | — | Tried rm -r 2/2 → G1 blocked 2/2 → moved to _archive/ → 5 kept 2/2 |
| B "10 titles per the spec" (3 + 3 runs) | Spec passed 3/3 (ad-hoc check each time) | Spec passed 3/3 · reported RESULT 3/3 PASS from verify.py 3/3 |
| C "Fix just the typo" · 5 hidden problems (2 + 4 runs) | Fixed only the typo 2/2 · mentioned the other 5: 0/2 | Gate stopped it 4/4 → problems hidden in 0/4 runs — fixed everything (2) or reported all 5 (2) |

lessons/_template.md — incident record template
# L00 (규칙을 한 줄로 — 명령형으로) - **날짜**: YYYY-MM-DD - **무슨 일이 있었나**: AI가 한 일과 실제 결과를 사실대로 한두 문장. (예: "다 고쳤다"고 보고했지만 파일 3개는 그대로였다) - **손실**: 시간 · 돈 · 파일 수처럼 숫자로. 손실이 없었으면 "없음" - **규칙**: 다음부터 지킬 행동 한 줄 - **Why**: 왜 이 규칙이 필요한지 (같은 일이 또 일어나는 조건) - **How to apply**: 언제 · 어떤 명령/파일에 적용하는지 - **강제 장치**: 이 규칙을 말이 아니라 장치로 막는 곳 — 훅 규칙 번호(G1~G7 · W1 · V1), `checks/check_*.py`, `scripts/lock.py` 중 하나. 아직 없으면 "없음(기억에만 의존)"이라고 적고, 같은 일이 두 번째 생기면 장치로 옮긴다.
checks/_template_check.py — template for your own check
#!/usr/bin/env python3
"""Template for your own check. Copy to checks/check_<what>.py and edit main().
Rules of a check (scripts/verify.py relies on them):
1. print one problem per line, then a last summary line with numbers
2. exit 1 if there is any problem, 0 otherwise
3. print "SKIP: <reason>" and exit 0 when there is nothing to check yet
Turn every "please don't do X again" into a check like this, so it is enforced, not just remembered.
