Vercel releases durable-harness to keep coding agents running through crashes

Vercel released durable-harness, an open-source package that prevents coding agents from losing work during crashes or timeouts.

The tool works across Vercel, local, and self-hosted environments, including a Postgres option using two environment variables.
