About claude-harness

English 日本語 Claude Harness Deconstructing Claude Code — interactive source code analysis, guided walkthroughs, and deep architectural exploration. Claude Harness is an open-source platform for exploring and understanding the internals of Claude Code, Anthropic's official AI coding agent. Through interactive code browsing, in-depth technical articles, and module-level analysis, it transforms 500K+ lines of TypeScript into an accessible learning experience. Why This Project Exists Claude Code is one of the most sophisticated AI agent harnesses ever built — a masterclass in tool design, context management, permission governance, and multi-agent coordination. But understanding its architecture from raw source alone is daunting. Claude Harness makes that architecture legible. It provides: Guided articles that walk through each subsystem with real code references Interactive code browser with syntax highlighting and full-text search Module visualizations that reveal the structural relationships in the codebase Whether you're building your own AI agent, studying harness engineering patterns, or simply curious about how Claude Code works under the hood — this project is for you.

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
