Question 1

What is SuperQode?

Accepted Answer

The open source, terminal first harness layer for coding agents. Build a HarnessSpec you own, or connect the agents you already use. Built by Superagentic AI, Apache 2.0.

Question 2

What is agent-to-agent communication?

Accepted Answer

Autonomous software agents exchanging tasks, context and results directly over a shared protocol, discovered through a published Agent Card, without a human relaying messages. The open standard is A2A, or Agent2Agent, governed under the Linux Foundation.

Question 3

What does the SuperQode A2A agent do?

Accepted Answer

It answers Agent2Agent requests at a2a.superqode.dev. The shortlist skill ranks third party coding agents from the Hub against your constraints, without a repository being sent.

Question 4

How conformant is the SuperQode A2A implementation?

Accepted Answer

Every MUST and every MAY passes in the Linux Foundation Technology Compatibility Kit, for 96.4% overall, on the JSON-RPC and HTTP+JSON transports the card declares.

Question 5

What is a coding agent harness?

Accepted Answer

The loop around the model: the tools it can call, the permissions it runs under, the memory and context it keeps, the sandbox it executes in, and the evidence it emits.

Question 6

What is harness engineering?

Accepted Answer

Treating that loop as an engineering artifact: versioned, inspectable, benchmarked on tasks from your own repository, and promoted only when your gates pass.

Question 7

Do I have to replace the coding agents my team already uses?

Accepted Answer

No. Connect the subscription or key you already pay for, or any of the 49 ACP agents. SuperQode owns the loop around the agent, not the agent.

Question 8

Which coding agent harness should my team use?

Accepted Answer

Nobody can answer that from outside your organization, because it depends on your repository. Benchmark candidates on your own code, or ask the A2A agent for a vendor neutral shortlist.

Question 9

Who is a design partner for?

Accepted Answer

Whoever owns the coding agent budget: the AI lead, the head of engineering, the person asked to justify the line. Engineers keep working the way they already work; the partnership measures where the spend goes and changes the harness rather than the people.

Question 10

Do you work with design partners?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The paid tiers are shaped with design partners before anything is priced. Write to partner@super-agentic.ai.
