What the publisher says

From the HarnessScope repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

HarnessScope

<!-- mcp-name: io.github.moongioh/hscope -->

Turn-level governance observability for agent harnesses. HarnessScope reads the transcripts your agent harness already writes, judges every turn against your workspace's own operating rules (plan-before-code, verify-before-done, context budget, path boundaries, …), and serves a local viewer that shows how each session traversed that governance structure — passes included, not just violations.

Every frame above is hscope demo: a synthetic corpus, generated locally. Real transcripts carry full prompt text and are never demo material.

What it found

A session is not one model talking to itself — it spawns subagents, they run on models the parent does not, and a streamed response writes the same request several times. Read that structure naively and the numbers are wrong. These are the corrections, each measured on this project's own transcripts:

The last row is the one that matters most, and it is the youngest: it was found after v0.1.3 shipped, by pointing the tool at its own workspace and reading the answer. The same class of mistake as row one, one layer further down, in code that had already passed its own tests. A tool that claims to catch a governance failure had better survive being aimed at itself — so that is now the standing use of it, and what it said next was worse.

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.

Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
