I like "agentic harness" too, but that's not the name of a skill.

"Designing agentic loops" describes a skill people need to develop. "Designing agentic harnesses" sounds more to me like you're designing a tool like Claude Code from scratch.

Plus "designing agentic loops" includes a reference to my preferred definition of the term "agent" itself - a thing that runs tools in a loop to achieve a goal.
