Harness Installation¶
ORCA is harness-agnostic conceptually, but users still need concrete harness help.
What A Harness Is¶
A harness is the agent surface or host where ORCA commands, skills, and workflow rules are actually used.
Examples:
- Codex
- Claude Code
- VS Code
Install Order¶
- Install ORCA first.
- Choose the harness in harness-chooser.md.
- Follow host setup in harness-setup.md.
- Verify with install-validation.md.
Core Rule¶
Do not force harness setup into the minimum ORCA install if the user is still deciding what host they want.
