Score: 7.0/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 7, Documentation: 8, Utility: 6)

Aharness enforces coding agent workflows as finite state machines on Codex CLI, preventing process drift by making states, approvals, and evidence types mandatory. It combines TypeScript-defined FSMs with runtime enforcement and a browser-based UI, offering a novel approach to managing long-running agentic tasks.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, AI agent developers
