• AI agent — An AI system that doesn't just answer once but works toward a goal in a loop — taking actions, reading the results, and deciding what to do next.
• agent harness — The scaffolding around a model that turns it into a working agent — the loop, the tools it can call, and the rules for when to stop.

A concrete, code-level example of structuring an agent harness with approval workflows and session persistence, useful as a template for building constrained business agents.
