Reading the article, I don't think it has AI. They've just made the tools in a way that AI assistants can also use them, and so fix linting errors without anyone needing to fine-tune the LLM on the syntax.

That's actually pretty slick. I've been wondering how we could avoid blocking innovation in programming languages because of the death cycle of "no training data on language -> LLM can't learn language -> Assistant can't code language -> nobody uses language -> no training data on language".

Yeah, reading the docs it seems you are right. The landing page mentions AI-native at the very top and all over the place, so I got the wrong impression that it's somehow tightly coupled to an AI integration. But looks like it's optional.
