harnest-agent launcher using the production runtime environment. Compiled agents and the Python runtime wheel exclude playground assets and its Markdown parser. The launcher does not expose playground, trace-viewer, or evaluation routes, even when server.playground.enabled is true; that setting only controls local harnest serve.
Production checklist
Ownership boundary
Authentication
Establish caller identity and resolve downstream credentials.
Storage
Replace process-local state with a durable backend.
Durable execution
Resume queued and external waits across replicas.
Telemetry
Export privacy-safe logs, traces, and audit signals.
Server properties
Keep local runtime settings separate from platform operations.
