The Shape of Things to Come
↗
Engineers should see that generic reusable harnesses can become unstable when model updates introduce subtle behaviors, as Gas Town did with Opus 4.7. Adopting a bespoke harness like Wheelhouse can organize many agents and improve scalability. Leveraging models such as Claude Fable 5 can automate routine coding, but creating substantive content still requires human expertise, and preparing for larger agent fleets and higher resource allocation will be necessary.

The author found that reusable harnesses like Gas Town break down when model updates introduce subtle behaviors (e.g., Opus 4.7's "just two more things" tic).
Wheelhouse, a bespoke harness built for personal use, runs many more agents in an organized fashion, demonstrating a path toward scalable agent fleets.
While Claude Fable 5 can automate large portions of code generation, creating substantive content such as artwork, lore, and storylines still requires human effort, indicating limits of current models.
