Opair
Opair is a coding harness built around AI pair programming, with driver and navigator modes modeled on human pair programming roles. In driver mode, the agent works like other harnesses but with less autonomy. In navigator mode, the agent has no writable tools at all; instead it monitors the project directory for changes as the user edits in their regular editor and comments on them in real time.
Problem: Big changes to a codebase are harder to understand when you're not directly involved in working on them; the author wants to understand the codebases they work with.

“A coding harness that works more like pair programming and less like code review: https://www.opairdev.org/ It has 2 modes, driver and navigator, that work like the driver/navigator roles for a human/human pair. In driver mode, Opair is similar to other harnesses but with less autonomy for the agent. In navigator mode, Opair has no access to writable tools at all. Instead it monitors the project directory for changes as you make them in your regular editor, and comments on them in real time.”
