I don’t find many issues with Clojure. The main problem is that it sometimes gets the paren balance wrong when it’s proposing an edit. Sometimes it will spin for a bit on that. A harness can help there, I’ve heard, but thus far I’ve just done a quick hand edit each time. I think this has something to do with how Lisps are typically written with all the closing parens on the last line, as opposed to on separate lines like with C. It might also have something to do with how parens and groups of parens are tokenized in the LLM and how edits are communicated (typically line oriented diffs). Regardless, it’s a problem but not a major one.

If you use clojure-mcp/clojure-mcp-light that problem goes away, and that gives it the ability to run a repl and work from it directly. It’s night and day.

Yea, I need to try those.
