Agentic programming workflows rather remind me of genetic programming. The agent has a validation step that looks like a fitness function, and both run iterative trials.
I'm super impressed by how many lint rules can be implemented with just eslint's no-restricted-syntax and selectors. Example:
{
selector: "ExportNamedDeclaration[declaration=null][source=null]",

}
I'm never sure how to convert words with hyphens into SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE. For example, should built-in function be BUILT_IN_FUNCTION or BUILTIN_FUNCTION?
