See the change before it's saved.

AI changes are shown as paired before/after diffs — never inline strikethrough, never silent. Approve, reject, or undo any hunk. Harbor records who proposed what, when, and why.

Make knowledge usable.

Harbor doesn't just store information. It structures it — people, tasks, preferences — so AI tools can search, understand, and update it reliably.

Stay in control.

Every AI write becomes a reviewable patch. Approve, reject, or undo — per hunk, per agent, per folder. No silent edits, ever.
