About¶
Frontier Harness Design Breakdowns — new section (4 breakdowns) Key idea: The course gives you a framework; these breakdowns show you how the same principles actually play out in production harnesses. --- Graph Engineering Update — 1 new lecture, 1 new project Key idea: A loop is a graph with one node. When your task needs specialization, parallelism, shared state, verification, and recovery — it has stopped being a loop. It's a graph. ---

These files live inside your repo, so every session starts from the sa
