Description

Broaden harness coverage beyond what we support today. Attempts so far: pi harness (#93), Gemini CLI (#98), Kilo (#108).

Not a priority right now: limited bandwidth, and each harness adds ongoing maintenance. Holding off rather than half-supporting.

Branches jvanvelu/add-pi-harness, feat/gemini-cli-support, add-kilo-code-parser, plus src/core/parser-harnesses.ts, are the starting points when we revisit.

Research direction

When this work is revisited, start with src/core/parser-harnesses.ts and review the prior pi, Gemini CLI, and Kilo attempts in branches jvanvelu/add-pi-harness, feat/gemini-cli-support, and add-kilo-code-parser. Define the additional harnesses to support and confirm that each can be maintained before implementation; done means the selected harness coverage is supported without half-supporting others.
