If you actually bothered reading my post, you'd see that it is about why it's worth learning Clojure. Nowhere am I suggesting that you should let agents run wild on a language you aren't comfortable using. And the only people I've seen actually struggle with it are largely those who're deeply invested in the imperative style.
I actually started my FP journey with Haskell, and I found Clojure very easy to pick up after learning it because most of the concept transfer directly, and it's a much simpler language. If you love Haskell, I'm very curious what challenges you ran into that students I worked with, who had little to know programming experience didn't.
I fully expect that people will, in fact, continue to learning new languages going forward. And my bet is that people will see value of working with high level languages like Clojure in agentic workflows. Imperative languages focus on low level details which are precisely what the LLM is great at automating. Languages like Haskell or Clojure focus more on declarative logic, and that's what the developer will need to understand going forward. But the advantage Clojure brings is the live environment which speeds up the development loop.
Your thesis appears to be that the language doesn't really matter when the agent writes code, but that couldn't be further from my own experience. I find the agentic workflow with Clojure is far superior to anything else I've tried for the reasons I articulate in the post. I built a large Rust app using LLMs, and all I can say is I'd never touch Rust again if I can help it. https://github.com/dirge-code/dirge
And of course, people have been talking about the demise of Lisp since before I was born. Yet, it's still here, it's still as useful as ever. And I doubt languages like Clojure are going anywhere in the future.

Project mention: Jack Dorsey launches Buzz to combine team chat, AI agents and Git hosting | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-07-21
I was trying to build something like that myself, but I had based it off IRC and was going to go protocol first not PaaS type of thing.
I think this is an unclaimed space where the future of work is bound to find itself in, though I'm not yet sure how/who is gonna win.
My solo project was abandoned unfortunately, that said I saw some cool protocol initiatives similar to it recently like this one: https://github.com/h5i-dev/h5i

enroute
Programmable git infrastructure on top of object storage. Think turbopuffer for git. Open source alternative to Pierre (code.storage) and Cloudflare Artifacts.
Project mention: You can run Git on object storage if you re-make packfiles | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-09-18I recently found https://github.com/enroute-sh/enroute which also does git on object storage
slightly off topic but I found the idea of a git-proxy interesting where you start with proxying an existing forge and then later adopt the object storage backend

lukan
AI workstation that codes, manages emails and calendar, automates tasks, browses the web, orchestrates multi-agent pipelines, and connects to WhatsApp, Slack, Discord & Telegram. Built in Rust.

grove
A machine-enforced workflow protocol for AI coding agents that eliminates false progress. Tasks require verifiable evidence to close, while decisions, assumptions, and open questions persist in a versioned reasoning graph for seamless agent handoffs. Designed to keep deep, long-running projects coherent across sessions, agents, and months. (by alxshelepenok)
I maintain Grove, an open-source protocol for keeping long-running, agent-driven projects coherent. Its core query is borrowed from the physics picture: before a line of code is written, the agent asks for the causality cone of the task it is about to start. This post explains what that cone is, which piece of 1927 graph theory hides inside it, and why the idea matters more with every month that coding agents take over larger stretches of our work.

agent-flow
Scaffold a bounded agent delivery workflow into a project, then validate and project its state. (by nothingnesses)
3. Parses and evaluates the plan files, to determine what the current state is and what the next valid transitions and states are according to the workflow, like a state machine, and outputs instructions and reminders for agents as to what they should do at each step of the workflow.
So far, I've been dogfooding the tool and it seems promising: I can leave Claude running for longer and it doesn't drift as much. However I haven't ran any benchmarks yet and I'm still not entirely happy with the state of the codebase ( https://github.com/nothingnesses/agent-scaffold ), so take this with a grain of salt.
That said, I'm also bullish on using agents with formal methods and proofs. Type checkers and compile-time checking in general are great because they surface errors early and with great specificity. So if you can encode your specifications with, e.g. dependent types, you can use the type-checker as a way to steer the agent when it goes wrong and gets off-track.

taska
Git-native task tracker for humans and coding agents: an append-only log your branches merge cleanly. No database, no daemon, no hooks.
Project mention: Your Coding Agent Has a Builtin Task Manager, But It Shreds the Task List Every Session. | dev.to | 2026-09-29So I started building my own: simple, predictable, non-invasive, and fitting whatever workflow you already have. I’ve been building it for months, adding features only when they proved necessary. It’s called taska.

Mutagen
Mutagen is a Rust based harness for Claude and Codex that was developed to lead users from idea to full-stack application with greater precision and less cost than competitors. (by CHKDSKLabs)
Project mention: Mutagen 0.4.0 Released: Service Extraction, Bug Crunches, and Fixed Persona Drift | dev.to | 2026-06-03Mutagen 0.4.0 addresses the friction points that plague agentic workflows: context bloat, brittle persona transitions, and the lack of a deterministic path from design document to deployed artifact. We aren't trying to make prompts smarter; we are making the harness that executes them more precise. This release introduces a Rust-based service extraction layer that decouples static dependency mapping from generative reasoning, implements an adversarial verification pipeline to gate deployment, and enforces strict stage transitions to prevent the agent personas we rely on from drifting into one another's scopes.
