i put together this, for myself so i can try to track what coding agents are doing, I add agents to it or topics (like caching, or sandboxing, file editing methods, etc) just to try and find anything novel or good, since I am/was considering making a new harness but using all the best things from any of those. I still cannot find my perfect coding agent, every one of them has some problem or just not totally what it could be.

What I do is just point agents to a folder, have it loop around a few times on a repo, fact checks at the end, but people sometimes think the software/harness around the AI model doesn't do much which is TOTALLY wrong, its probably AS important or more.. file editing methods available matter a lot, context compaction methods... matter, caching matters. I am still fantasizing about a "best of N" coding agent, that tries to take all the best stuff from all of them.

I have an idea of a coding agent that puts a lot more effort into using more than one model at the same time. Sooo much can be done with that idea.. and no one is apparently doing it yet that I can find. I just am not sure I want to put that much time into a new coding agent project. I wonder how autonomous it could be - have weekly or daily scans of the current coding agent landscape and automatic scanning of coding agent/ai code related subreddits/hacker news, analyze it to figure out what the current problems are, complaints about existing coding agents, desires --> prioritized list of possible features/fixes ---> ai agents code and make releases
