Build an experimental programming language
Australian developer Geoffrey Huntley ran Claude Code in repeated loops for three months to build Cursed, a programming language using Gen Z vocabulary. The compiler and demonstrations were published. This was a learning experiment with incomplete components, without measured labor savings.
Source checked: the source link is valid and the automated fact check passed. The summary is AI-assisted. This is not human verification. Check the original source before relying on its claims.
For whom
Independent developers and compiler researchers; small teams with strong debugging skills.
Not for
Not suitable for teams needing a proven production language.

Five values from 0 to 2. The total has a minimum of 1. A reading aid based on the source, not an independently measured performance result. How the score works
Still current?
Partly, better ways exist
Today: Use the Ralph Loop plugin for Claude Code with compiler tests, explicit completion criteria and iteration limits.
Augments or replaces?
Mixed
The developer sets the experiment and learns from it, while autonomous AI loops perform most compiler implementation with little ongoing direction.
