In my limited experience, the smaller the model, the bigger the harness. Where with something like claude or deepseek the context size etc just let's you give it bash access and step back; small models tends to do better with simple action - response , new context each call. Context management becomes a continuous activity. Its a fun space , and I have found big models decent at building and improving these harnesses for the small ones. Using /loop and just run a continuous test - build - test loop.
