I've been using AI agents for multi-session projects (not one-shot tasks...actual work with phases, dependencies, and handoffs between sessions). Curious what patterns other people are seeing.
Your AI agent starts strong...then drifts, loses context, and skips steps. HyperWorker stops that.
Six mechanisms in markdown and YAML keep long-running projects on track: Lock (no drift), Atomicity (no "mostly finished"), Dependency (no skipped steps), Memory (session survival), Precedence (rule conflicts), Verification (evidence-based completion).
Point your agent at HARNESS.md and it scaffolds everything. Built in Cowork. Works with any LLM that reads files. Open source, MIT licensed.
