Harness Bitchat Workspace

This workspace contains two complementary parts:

• bitchat/ — the production Swift app and test suite.
• harness-bitchat/ — an agent-oriented harness layer that applies long-running harness design principles (Planner / Generator / Evaluator, artifact handoffs, and verification gates).

Why harness-bitchat is useful

• Clear role separation: planning, implementation, and evaluation responsibilities are explicit, reducing confusion and context drift.
• Reproducible progress: specs, sprint contracts, QA reports, and handoff state are file artifacts that survive sessions and context resets.
• Verifiable quality gate: automated swift build + swift test checks are codified in scripts and the Swift CLI (bitchat-harness).
• Lower regression risk: every sprint has a contract and evidence-backed evaluation before being considered complete.
• Scalable autonomy: external orchestrators can call the same stable gates while iterating across long-running tasks.

Quick start

From workspace root:

./harness-bitchat/scripts/verify-project.sh
./harness-bitchat/scripts/run-swift-harness.sh verify
