Has anyone yet designed a language with the explicit goal of being cheapest/easiest to use by an AI coding agent?

January 2026 might be the month of langs created to be used by AI. Usually the chief concern is saving on tokens, prompted by context window anxiety. (This completely disregards the fact that agents thrash the context window by doing wrong things, then attempting to fix them; or by reading unrelated stuff; or by calling unhelpful tools; etc)

And many other threads I didn't find right now
> Nerd: A language for LLMs, not humans
Interesting take, because I think precisely the opposite. Coding agents let us produce a lot of code, code that we need to read and review. That means we need languages optimized for code generation by AI, and code review by humans.
I see tons one them regularly here. And it's probably useless because LLM need a ton of training data
Not a language, but we are having very good success using https://brannn.github.io/simplex/ for autonomous one-shot workflows. It seems to be a very high-fidelity input for LLMs.
