"notes": "Babysitter is a process-orchestration runtime, not a chat-loop runtime.\nIt records effects (task / breakpoint / sleep / orchestratorTask /\nsubprocess / hook intrinsics) into the journal and replays them\ndeterministically across iterations. Harness adapters (claude-code,\ncodex, cursor, opencode, gemini-cli) are spawned as subprocesses for\nkind: 'agent' tasks; their working directories are isolated per task.\nBabysitter exposes a built-in MCP server (see\npackages/sdk/src/cli/mcpServeEntry.ts) for tools, and uses its own\nbreakpoint policy engine (packages/sdk/src/breakpoints/) for approval\ngating.\n"
