For a review of this library see https://neilmadden.blog/2025/06/06/a-look-at-cloudflares-ai-...
Upshot: though it's possible to attempt this with (heavily supervised) LLMs, it's not recommended.
Such a cool review! thanks for posting it. Great to see that authoritative experts are sharing their time and thoughts, lots to learn from this review. Despite the caveats mentioned by Neil, I still think this is a good example of a "non trivial / not boilerplate thing done w/ LLMs". To think we got from chatgpt's cute "looks like python" scripts 2.5 years ago to these kinds of libraries is amazing in my book.
I'd be curious to see how the same exercise would go with Neil guiding claude. There's no debating that LLMs + domain knowledge >>> vibe coding, and I would be curious to see how that would go, and how much time/effort would an expert "save" by using the latest models.
