Launch HN from YC S26 founders (ex-AppLovin and Citadel, after six pivots) pitches a speed-focused harness rather than a model: model routing, targeted code search instead of whole-repo embedding, context management, and turn batching they say cut round trips 16% and costs 27% internally. 479/500 in one attempt, 35–67% faster than mini-SWE-agent, plugs into Claude, Codex and Grok. The top critique in 74 comments asked what a saturated SWE-bench leaderboard means without disclosing model selection. Fair question, and the founders pointed to Terminal-Bench and CursorBench for future validation.
