It's been a while since I wrote anything so I wrote an article on how to discover the entire x86-64 instruction set in seconds including any hidden instructions and learn their basic properties while on it. There were some pretty interesting results!

We’re spending up to 100B tokens across 26,040 agent runs to answer one question: when you switch models, should you switch harnesses too?

Our v1.0 FrontierHarness leaderboard ranked harnesses on a single model.
V1.1 expands it to 21 harnesses × 5 models × 62 tasks × 4 attempts, 72x the size of v1.0.

Results are coming in live. Link below🧵

we should have just given agents an unpriv user on our PCs. it'd keep 99% of the isolation boundary you want without any overhead & every single OS is already multi-user. /home/claude, done.
