I can’t speak to getting an LLM to talk to a CL listener, simply because I don’t know the mechanics of hooking it up. But being as they can talk to most anything else, I see no reason why it can’t.

What they can certainly do is iterate with a listener with you acting as a crude cut and paste proxy. It will happily give you forms to shove into a REPL and process the results of them. I’ve done it, in CL. I’ve seen it work. It made some very interesting requests.

I’ve seen the LLM iterate, for example, with source code by running it, adding logging, running it again, processing the new log messages, and cycling through that, unassisted, until it found its own “aha” and fixed a problem.

What difference does it make whether it’s talking to a shell or a CL listener? It’s not like it cares. Again, the mechanics of hooking up an LLM to a listener directly, I don’t know. I haven’t dabbled enough in that space to matter. But that’s a me problem, not an LLM problem.
