The API reaches every open session once enabled, the app runs only on macOS, and none of the last 35 CI runs on the main branch passed.\n\n**HarnessRouter.** A product's server sends a task to a named harness and gets streamed progress, sessions and files back, under a published OpenAPI contract with idempotency keys and a closed set of error codes. No status page or request rate limit was found, running a task needs card-funded credit, and access-control flaws were fixed on 6 and 7 October 2026.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### CLI Manager\n\n1. Ask the user to switch on Settings \u003e Agents \u003e AI Control API first, then read the URL and token from `~/.climanager/control-api.json`\n2. On `409 awaiting_input`, read the screen and answer with `keys` such as [\"down\",\"enter\"]. Leave folder-trust and permission choices to the user\n3. Stop using a session on `409 disconnected`. The user took it back\n4. Treat `timedOut: true` from `wait` as still running, not as a failure, and wait again\n5. Pass `ephemeral: true` when opening a scratch or worktree folder, and close only sessions you opened\n\n### HarnessRouter\n\n1. Name the harness yourself. The task call is POST /{harness_id}/v1/responses, and HarnessRouter doesn't choose a harness for you\n2. Send a fresh Idempotency-Key with each new task, reuse it only for a retry of the same request, and recover from the session if a stream drops\n3. Call cancel to stop work. Closing the SSE connection leaves the agent running and billing\n4. Keep the Workspace API key on the server. The docs forbid calling the API from a browser with it\n5. Check each tool's enforcement in GET /v1/bases. On bases marked instruction, disabled_tools is a request to the model, not a block\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, CLI Manager or HarnessRouter?\n\nCLI Manager scores 65.8 (B) on agent readiness against HarnessRouter's 53.2 (D), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories. HarnessRouter leads on agent ergonomics, maintenance \u0026 community and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Are CLI Manager and HarnessRouter open source?\n\nYes. CLI Manager is open source (MIT). HarnessRouter is open source (Apache-2.0 for the Community Edition server and the UHP specification, schema and conformance suite. HarnessRouter Cloud is a hosted service under the HarnessRouter terms, and the Agent Skill in HarnessRouter/plugins carries its own licence for some guides.).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cli-manager-vs-harnessrouter.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cli-manager-vs-harnessrouter.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"cli-manager\", \"b\": \"harnessrouter\"}`.
