Research direction

Start by examining how the harness currently consumes config.yaml and how it builds and analyzes a program. Define the input and behavior for using compile_commands.json instead, including how the compilation database replaces or complements the detailed configuration. Done means the harness supports this mode for a program and its build and analysis flow is covered by appropriate validation.
