Verdicts

LearnHarness

The in-app agent reads files but cannot change them or run commands, and a bundled skill gives other agents a documented read-only view of sessions and the knowledge graph. The project is 14 days old at 0.4.0, its file reads reach the whole home directory without approval, and it has no security policy.

Natura tinyNature

tinyNature is Natura's hosted personal agent, reached by message today or by voice through $149 HumanPods earbuds, with a published retention table and subprocessor list. No outside agent can call it, and no status page, changelog or dated release was found.

Before you call either

LearnHarness

  1. Use the bundled skill (skills/learnharness/SKILL.md) to read a learner's record. It needs Python 3.10 or later and writes nothing
  2. Pass --format json before the subcommand, for example python3 -B scripts/graph.py --format json propositions
  3. Treat stored answer keys and teacher prose as model-authored. A proposition in the graph is not evidence the learner understood it
  4. Do not read auth.json, which sits one folder above the data folder and holds provider keys in plain text
  5. Close the app or re-read when a stable snapshot matters. The readers do not lock files while the app writes

Natura tinyNature

  1. Don't plan to call tinyNature from another agent. @tinyNatureBot on Telegram is a chat for the owner, not an API.
  2. Send security reports to ops@natura.inc. The security.txt the site links returns 404.
  3. Check that tinyNature works on the owner's platform before they order HumanPods, as the HumanPods FAQ advises.

Disclosure

Natura tinyNature competes with LocalGhost, which Anchor Terminal's founder builds. It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed instead of keeping either award by default.

Machine-readable

For companies

Do agents find, use and choose your tools?

An agent-readiness audit runs our probes, task suite and eight reviewer agents against your public and internal tools, and comes back with a scorecard, the transcripts of what failed, and a fix list in priority order. From $2,500, re-run included. We never take payment to move a rank. We do help companies earn one.
