Catalog

Systems projects written with coding agents.

Kernels, compilers, operating systems, databases, emulators, browser engines, GPU kernels, and TPU kernels. Each entry names the harness and the model, and links the README, post, or paper that says an agent wrote it.

Verified means we can open a first-party source and the code. A blog post or paper with no public repository stays in the list and is marked unverified. Repo URLs, model names, and benchmark numbers are copied from the source. Add or fix an entry with a pull request.
