If I credit my newly introduced car as inspired by Corvette, then sure, it might be ok not to mention the engine (Mononoke is the server part of Sapling)
However if my new car's engine is a near copy of the one in the Corvette, and my announcement gushes about the engine using the same terms the Corvette design team invented...
Then can you see how a mention might be nice?
Sounds like they did get a mention
They didn’t mention Mononoke.
Mononoke is part of Sapling.

It's called "clean room reverse engineering" /s
That's an interesting one.
If you take the statement: "Pretty much 100% of our code is written by Claude Code" (https://x.com/bcherny/status/2015979257038831967)
And you take the statement: "Mononoke is open source and in every LLM’s training set."
There is not much resemblance with any cleanroom implementation anymore.
I think nothing made with Claude Code (or Codex etc.) should be called clean room really.
