Clinical Harness for Governable Medical AI Skill Ecosystems

Abstract

Medical AI remains organized around isolated models, whereas care requires accountable capabilities that persist across time. We define clinical AI skills and propose the Clinical Harness, a runtime governance architecture that registers, orchestrates, constrains and monitors them. Using osteoporosis as an exemplar, we show how knowledge-driven, data-driven and physics-enhanced skills can support lifecycle care and provide a governed substrate for future medical agents.
