agents need tracing and harness design

April 3, 2026LangChain, Junyang Lin

LangChain says tracing is the foundational primitive for improving agents, and Junyang Lin argues "model+harness" now beats "model only" because agent performance depends heavily on harness quality.

A trace gives you the full behavioral record of what an agent actually did.
model+harness is now over model only.
agent perf can be significantly influenced by the design and quality of harness.
