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.
Tasker AI
Tasker AI is a freemium hosted assistant reached in Slack, WhatsApp, Telegram, SMS and email, with public plan prices from US$0. Its API, MCP and open-source claims couldn't be confirmed on 21 October 2026. No API documentation was found, and the npm package its API page tells developers to install doesn't exist.
Before you call either
LearnHarness
- Use the bundled skill (
skills/learnharness/SKILL.md) to read a learner's record. It needs Python 3.10 or later and writes nothing - Pass
--format jsonbefore the subcommand, for examplepython3 -B scripts/graph.py --format json propositions - Treat stored answer keys and teacher prose as model-authored. A proposition in the graph is not evidence the learner understood it
- Do not read
auth.json, which sits one folder above the data folder and holds provider keys in plain text - Close the app or re-read when a stable snapshot matters. The readers do not lock files while the app writes
Tasker AI
- Don't plan to call Tasker from another agent until it publishes API documentation. GET api.tasker.ai/v1/tasks returned 404.
- Don't run npx create-tasker@latest. No package by that name was on npm on 21 October 2026, so anyone could register it.
- Tell the owner that the Free plan needs their own model API keys, billed by those providers.

Disclosure
Tasker AI 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.
