a tiny project

investigating the capabilities of language model (LM) agent systems for (mostly) autonomous development of high-performance and low-level software. Scary! This is an experiment. My goal is to understand the limitations of these systems, and share software that I've curated as part of the investigations. Use this software at your own risk.
