A developer has detailed their experience rewriting Claude Code in Rust, finding that the agent loop was not the most challenging aspect. The subsequent 17,000 lines of code involved complex tasks such as cancellation, filesystem containment, protocol edge cases, and behavioral evaluations. This extensive work was necessary to transform the initial prototype into a functional agent harness. AI
