Show HN: Poncho, a general agent harness built for the webHi HN! I'm building poncho, a framework for building custom AI agents that are version-controlled in git, developed locally, and deployed as isolated endpoints (serverless-friendly by default).Poncho agents follow the same conventions as openclaw or claude code so they probably feel familiar.You can talk to them via terminal or web ui to build new skills or configure the agent, and they're compatible with the Agent Skills open spec, so you can port your skills. Small caveat: right now it's compatible with .md skills and js/ts scripts, but many skills are bash or python-based. I'm still figuring out what would be the best way to extend support for those skills without overcomplicating it, if anybody has any ideas I appreciate it!Some features:- Git-native: agent behavior, skills, and tests live in your repository (reviewable diffs + easy rollbacks). - Single-file agent definition: define runtime config + instructions in AGENT.md (YAML frontmatter + prompt content). - Skills you can ship
