slopc lets LLMs write function bodies

This is clever tooling theater: funny on the surface, but also a real stress test for how far LLM-generated code can be pushed when the compiler is in the loop.

• –The retry-on-error loop is the interesting bit, because it turns compilation failures into an iterative prompt signal instead of a dead end
• –It targets a narrow but compelling use case for AI coding: boilerplate, utility functions, and code you can fully specify with docs and signatures
• –The README makes clear this is intentionally tongue-in-cheek, so its real value is as a demo of agentic code generation, not a production-ready abstraction
• –As a Rust proc macro, it sits squarely in developer-tool territory and is most useful to people experimenting with AI-assisted build pipelines
• –The project’s AGPL license and “don’t use this seriously” posture reinforce that it is more a provocative open-source artifact than a mainstream library
