Aligning generative models with human preferences remains a central challenge. While RLHF is widely adopted, it relies on large-scale preference data. This limitation is particularly evident in evaluating instruction-guided image edits, even though humans can often learn such preferences from only a few examples. We present RewardHarness, a training-free, self-evolving agentic reward framework that reframes reward modeling as context evolution rather than weight optimization. Instead of learning from large-scale annotations, RewardHarness aligns with human preferences by iteratively evolving a library of tools and skills from as few as 100 preference demonstrations. Given a source image, an edited image, and an editing instruction, an orchestrator agent selects the most relevant subset of tools and skills from the maintained library, and sub-agents invoke them to construct a reasoning chain that produces a reward score. By comparing predicted scores with ground-truth preferences and analyzing successes and failures in the reasoning process, the orchestrator automatically refines its library of tools and skills without additional human annotation. Using only 0.05% of the EditReward preference data, RewardHarness achieves 47.4% average accuracy on EditReward-Bench K=2/3/4 and GenAI-Bench, surpassing GPT-5 by 5.3 points. When used as a reward signal in FlowGRPO, RL-tuned models achieve 3.52 on ImgEdit-Bench. Code and model are available at the project page: https://rewardharness.com/
