Small Harness adds verbose mode for agents

Morgan Linton shared a series of updates to Small Harness, a local agent harness for small language models, highlighting verbose mode as a key developer experience improvement. This addition aims to help developers debug, understand, and optimize how local agents execute tool calls.

// ANALYSIS

A verbose mode is essential for developing local agent workflows, where small models frequently struggle with tool calling formatting.

–Exposing the underlying LLM's raw token generation and tool calling logic aids prompt engineering and system instruction tweaks.
–Enables more precise context window management for resource-constrained local environments.
–Helps verify that fallback parser strategies (like inline JSON detectors) are working as expected.
