A developer directed Claude Code in YOLO mode to build JSSE, a from-scratch JavaScript engine in Rust, without writing a single line of code themselves. Six weeks later, JSSE became the first new JS engine to pass all 98,426 test262 non-staging tests — beating V8, SpiderMonkey, and JavaScriptCore's test262 compliance records. The project used a feedback loop between test262 and the agent to autonomously implement, test, and iterate.
