Hi HN,
I started experimenting with an idea:
What would a programming language look like if it was designed for autonomous coding agents as well as humans?
Most languages today assume a human is writing the code.
Valea explores:
- structured JSON compiler diagnostics - deterministic formatting - minimal syntax ambiguity - simple ownership rules - tooling designed for agents (AST export, diagnostics APIs)
The goal of the first milestone is simple: show that an AI agent can generate, repair, and compile a Valea program autonomously.
The compiler is still very early, but feedback on the idea and language design would be really helpful.
