Externalizing Research Synthesis and Validation in AI Scientists through a Research Harness

In three linesXcientist is a research harness that externalizes research synthesis and experimental validation for AI scientists into inspectable, contract-governed processes. It organizes literature evidence, idea states, implementation plans, and repair traces as persistent research artifacts, eliminating claim drift where runnable artifacts no longer support the originally claimed mechanism.
