HarnessRouter Community Edition: the self-hosted, Apache-2.0 edition of the unified interface for agent harnesses. Run Codex, Claude Code, Hermes, PI, DSH, and more through one API, with sessions, streaming, files, cancellation, and failure handling. Implements the Unified Harness Protocol (UHP), an open standard. Your keys, your infrastructure.

About the project

Self-hosted gateway that turns existing agent harnesses (Codex, Claude Code, Aider, etc.) into pluggable backends behind one OpenAI-compatible API via the open Unified Harness Protocol.

Useful for
  • Run HarnessRouter in Docker and connect your own model provider key
  • Switch harnesses and models via metadata.harness_id without changing product code
  • Integrate agent tasks into your backend through the OpenAI Responses-compatible API

3.4 Breakout Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 26, 2026, 12:39 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-26 (UTC), 11:33–12:27: 3663 → 3665 stars (+2). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +27 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • Over the last two days the pace is 2.4× that of the previous week and a half.
  • GitHub Trending Python today: #16, +95 stars.
  • About 11 forks a day — people are taking the code.
  • Recent forks include notable developers: @mvanhorn (5,721 followers).

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

New stars over 7 days: 530. +214% versus the preceding 7 days.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
