Safety Lives in the Fan-In: Designing Fail-Closed Parallel Multi-Harness Systems

Five implementation disciplines for running multiple harnesses in parallel on an agent platform without weakening safety

On an agent platform, you want to run identity, authority, trust, and surface-specific harnesses simultaneously against a single action. But in a fail-closed system, naive parallelization quietly weakens safety. This article works through the design disciplines at the implementation level: a fan-in fold over a normalized sequence of envelopes, restrictive-side conversion of timeouts, DAG dependencies, budgets, and snapshots.
