Platform Chat Harness

The Platform Chat harness is a focused operator environment built on the empty Base harness. It powers the global chat interface where users manage Everruns through the authoritative platform catalog.

  • Global chat interface sessions
  • Agents that need to manage platform resources (agents, harnesses, providers)
  • Administrative assistants that interact with the Everruns API

CompactionBounds long management conversations

Platform Chat discovers current command names and schemas before acting. It uses query for inspection, execute only for requested mutations, and then queries the final state. For recurring autonomous work it creates an Agent Trigger rather than scheduling the Platform Chat session.

Generic-purpose tools such as Bash, web fetch, session secrets, and session schedules are intentionally absent. This keeps command selection focused and prevents credentials or schedules from being written into the management session when they belong to the created worker Agent.

When a tool needs a credential, Platform Chat attaches the capability and creates a value-free Agent credential setup requirement. It links to the Agent’s Credentials tab, where the user enters the value in a write-only form. Platform Chat never asks for or reuses plaintext from the conversation.
