Harness Portability

A harness tied to one provider's interface conventions, token accounting or tool-calling format has to be rewritten for each new target, which quietly reintroduces the coupling that portability was meant to remove. Genuine portability means the organization's rules, patterns and retrieval logic are expressed independently of any provider's API shape, with the adaptation confined to a thin translation layer maintained by the platform rather than by the customer.

Centralpoint absorbs provider differences below the level at which the organization works. Skills, prompts and patterns are authored once against the platform, and adaptations for new providers and models arrive every two weeks across all deployment modes — so a market that changes weekly is absorbed as maintenance rather than as repeated re-platforming by the customer.
