What is a CLAUDE harness and when do I need one for workflow governance?

A CLAUDE harness is a structured configuration that orchestrates agent teams and skills for domain projects, enforcing mandatory SKILL.md presence and lifecycle management from planning to maintenance.

How do I set up agent teams and skills for a domain project step by step?

Define initial .claude/agents and .claude/skills, generate CLAUDE.md pointers with version history, and initialize the orchestrator workflow to apply team design and scoping from Phase 0 to Phase 7.

Can I use Claude workflow orchestration for project scoping and ongoing maintenance?

Yes, Claude workflow orchestration covers the entire lifecycle from project scoping and team design to monitoring, governance, and maintenance, including templates and references for evolution patterns.

Does Claude agent team design require a SKILL.md file in the project?

Yes, Claude agent team design enforces mandatory SKILL.md presence, creating .claude/agents/.md and .claude/skills/.md files while updating CLAUDE.md pointers with version history.

What's the best way to manage optional scripts and references in a Claude harness?

Claude harness management supports optional scripts, references, and assets alongside mandatory agent and skill definitions, updating CLAUDE.md pointers to maintain version history and governance.
