    A folder of text is all you need now to build an agent. Everything else is Engineering trying to stay relevant in the age of AI.

      hogswash - i've built several agentic cloud system with long running agents. it DEFINETLY requires engineering - if you think a .md file is all that it takes you've never done anything at scale

        You are missing my point. Engineers are putting the cart before the horse. Get the basic setup going and validate, before building your harness. Every company is branding themselves as a harness company. When in reality, most of it is commodity. The real value is the skills and context.

      Yes a lot of mysticism also surrounding "skills" and building them.

      You literally just open a text file and type in what you want. No engineering needed.
