According to @AnthropicAI, Opus 4.6 was organized into agent teams to autonomously build a C compiler with minimal human oversight, and two weeks later the compiler worked on the Linux kernel, source: AnthropicAI. @AnthropicAI states that its new engineering blog explains lessons learned about the future of autonomous software development and agent workflows, source: AnthropicAI. The successful Linux kernel validation highlights a concrete benchmark for autonomous coding capabilities as reported by @AnthropicAI, source: AnthropicAI.
