gan-style-harness

gan-style-harness is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Jamkris/everything-gemini-code. It costs 33 tokens per session (2,843 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of gan-style-harness, MIT.

A multi-agent workflow in which one agent builds an application and another evaluates it, then the feedback guides further improvements. GANs, or generative adversarial networks, are AI systems built around a similar generator-and-evaluator idea.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build complete applications, improve frontend visual quality, and check whether a project has working features rather than only plausible-looking code.
Why use it?
It addresses the problem of an AI agent overlooking flaws in its own work, especially in larger application and design tasks.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

gan-style-harness scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

94% identical to gan-style-harness — 41 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

GAN-Style Harness Skill

Inspired by Anthropic's Harness Design for Long-Running Application Development (March 24, 2026)

A multi-agent harness that separates generation from evaluation, creating an adversarial feedback loop that drives quality far beyond what a single agent can achieve.

Core Insight

When asked to evaluate their own work, agents are pathological optimists — they praise mediocre output and talk themselves out of legitimate issues. But engineering a separate evaluator to be ruthlessly strict is far more tractable than teaching a generator to self-critique.

This is the same dynamic as GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks): the Generator produces, the Evaluator critiques, and that feedback drives the next iteration.

When to Use

  • Building complete applications from a one-line prompt
  • Frontend design tasks requiring high visual quality
  • Full-stack projects that need working features, not just code
  • Any task where "AI slop" aesthetics are unacceptable
  • Projects where you want to invest $50-200 for production-quality output

When NOT to Use

  • Quick single-file fixes (use standard gemini -p)
  • Tasks with tight budget constraints (<$10)
  • Simple refactoring (use de-sloppify pattern instead)
  • Tasks that are already well-specified with tests (use TDD workflow)
