Picking Your Agent Harness

The new front door for the site. The first decision in 2026 is not which model to use — it is which **harness** wraps the model. OpenClaw, Mavis, Hermes Agent, and Claude Code all sit on top of roughly the same set of frontier models; what differs is the agent loop, the multi-agent topology, the install footprint, the cost ceiling, and the audit surface. This course walks through the four harnesses the channel covers most, names the use case each one wins, and finishes with the migration path from OpenClaw to Hermes — the move the channel itself is making.
