I read most of this before understanding that I wasn't reading about some new agent or IDE or something, I was reading a sales pitch for a coding course for would-be vibe coders, with AI training wheels in the form of ... a dialog box to talk to an LLM.
I should have noticed the camp counselor / cultish / tedx vibes, throwin around REPL and feedback loops. I feel that it's somewhat misleading to present this as some amazing self-building software or server platform here, and bury the lede that what's being sold is an experimental tutoring method. It's almost like those "I built an AI agent that builds AI agents" posts, only instead of selling the sixty lines of python, it's selling a set of lectures that goes with them.
It's interesting, because the tool and the course is the very _opposite_ of vibe coding. But to each their own I guess.
In other words, a grift.
Same conclusion.
Maybe you should look a bit more into the folks who made this before dissing their work like this.
I did do that now, and I see a string of similar consultant-like training/course packages. It's a bit like when Deloitte comes by to pitch.
What have they built that impressed you?
