AI-agent terminology: definitions that matter

Hugging Face publishes a glossary for AI agents, focusing on how terms like 'harness', 'scaffold' and other key concepts should be correctly understood in AI-agent contexts. The glossary helps developers and researchers avoid misunderstandings around agent architecture and design patterns.

WHY IT MATTERS

As the AI-agent field rapidly expands, correct terminology becomes critical for communication between teams and for building on each other's work. Misinterpretations of fundamental concepts can lead to inefficient research and poor design decisions.
