Our focus is making agents run easily and reliably in prod

Strands harness is meant to be deployed outside of AWS too. I got it running on Cloudflare Containers and Modal before this launch (deployment docs coming soon). We just want to keep making a really good harness, esp since Strands is born from a lot of internal headbanging around building agents

We want folks to deploy Strands harness anywhere they want

For Terminal Bench 2.1, Strands harness (Fable 5) scored 69.7 while Claude Code (Fable 5) scored 61.8. This is on high effort.

I hear you tho about saturation. We're working on a follow-up deep dive post with more harnesses, so could look into Terminal Bench 4.0?

We can look into a Pi run. Our researcher is working on a deep dive for our benchmarks, so we got resources to test against other harnesses
