# Harness Open Source Self-Hosted Git and CI/CD Development Platform
Harness Open Source (formerly Gitness) is an end-to-end developer platform that integrates Git repository hosting, CI/CD pipelines, hosted development environments, and artifact registries in a single self-hosted binary.
## Installation
Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- docker run -d \
- If your version is different than v3.21.11, run brew unlink protobuf
- $ make dep
- $ make tools
Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- The latest publicly released docker image can be found on [harness/harness](https://hub.docker.com/r/harness/harness).
- -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- To install Harness yourself, simply run the command below. Once the container is up, you can visit http://localhost:3000 in your browser.
- Check if you've already installed protobuf protoc --version
- Get v3.21.11 curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/9de8de7a533609ebfded833480c1f7c05a3448cb/Formula/protobuf.rb > /tmp/protobuf.rb

Ultra-compressed communication mode. Cuts token usage ~75% by speaking like caveman while keeping full technical accuracy. Supports intensity levels: lite, full (default), ultra, wenyan-lite, wenyan-full, wenyan-ultra. Use when user says "caveman mode", "talk like caveman", "use caveman", "less tokens", "be brief", or invokes /caveman. Also auto-triggers when token efficiency is requested.
Adversarial multi-agent planning skill. Self-orchestrates 5 hostile category members (unspecified-low, unspecified-high, deep, ultrabrain, artistry) via team-mode for ruthless cross-critique debate, distills only the defensible insights, then MANDATORILY hands the distilled insight bundle to the `plan` agent for executable plan formalization. Use when planning needs maximum rigor and surfacing of weak assumptions, blind spots, and over-engineering. Triggers: 'hyperplan', 'hpp', '/hyperplan', ...
**Complete production-ready guide for Google Gemini embeddings API** This skill provides comprehensive coverage of the `gemini-embedding-001` model for generating text embeddings, including SDK usage, REST API patterns, batch processing, RAG integration with Cloudflare Vectorize, and advanced use cases like semantic search and document clustering. ---
Interview, source-challenge, verify, save, and ADR-gate fuzzy coding requests into Codex-ready implementation specs. Use when a feature, bugfix, refactor, migration, repo-wide change, or architecture task needs user-verified requirements, source-backed decisions, durable architecture decisions, acceptance criteria, validation commands, rollout notes, saved spec/ADR files, and a Codex execution prompt. Do not use when already fully specified or when the user wants direct implementation now.
Use when a repo needs CodeGraph plus ast-grep for Codex MCP setup, exploration, impact analysis, structural search, or safe refactor planning.
