DeepSeek's super-agent design, explained

AI agents keep getting better, so the new limit is your attention: most people can follow only three to five agent sessions at once. Nora and Ben explain the DeepSeek Harness team's design for a "super-agent", one agent that is always on and works on many tasks at once. A front-desk router talks to you and hands out tasks to background workers. Cheap code filters out the noise, and the agent can quietly fix bugs before anyone asks. The hosts also go through the team's early test results and the main unsolved problem, security. Source: DeepSeek Harness on X, "Exploring Super-agent Design" (1 Nov 2026).
