Why we included this project
Developers who have grown tired of AI assistants handing back half-working snippets will appreciate what this project gets right. Instead of trying to replace an entire developer, it narrows its job to one tightly scoped loop: take a prompt, write a definitive test case, then keep generating and fixing code until every test passes. That feedback loop is the real value, since you get a machine-readable definition of done rather than a vague 'does it work?' guess. It runs as a command-line tool installed globally via npm, so it fits naturally into a terminal workflow without dragging in a full IDE or agent runtime. Teams that want a dependable way to bootstrap small, testable pieces of logic, like a function, a utility, or a small module, will find it a useful complement to broader coding assistants, especially when you want results verified automatically instead of eyeballing them.
