It’s come a long way since then. Thanks to [@certik](https://fortran-lang.discourse.group/u/certik)’s hard work it seems like it is pretty much there!\n\nI recently made a little tool to share REPLs between agents and humans (via Claude Code, Pi, Codex etc), and added an LFortran demo. This one is still in progress a little as LFortran develops but pretty cool to see IMO \n\nSee [Fortran section here](https://omaclaren.github.io/agent-repl/)\n\n(For now, the RK4 step is written in scalars while some bug fixes are in progress.) Would be happy for any feedback if anyone tries it out!\n\nCheers,\n\nOliver\n\n \n1 Like\n\n \n[certik](https://fortran-lang.discourse.group/u/certik)\n2\n \nThanks [@omacl](https://fortran-lang.discourse.group/u/omacl) !\n\nI am fixing all the issues you reported at [Issues · lfortran/lfortran · GitHub](https://github.com/lfortran/lfortran/issues?q=is%3Aissue+state%3Aopen+author%3Aomaclaren), should be done soon.", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/lfortran-coding-agents", "canonical_source": "https://fortran-lang.discourse.group/t/lfortran-coding-agents/11278#post_2", "published_at": "2026-11-05 01:18:05+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-11-05 01:19:59.400378+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-agents", "ai-tools", "developer-tools"], "entities": ["LFortran", "Oliver (omacl)", "certik", "Claude Code", "Codex", "Pi", "fortran-lang.discourse.group", "GitHub"], "also_reported_by": [], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/lfortran-coding-agents", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/lfortran-coding-agents.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/lfortran-coding-agents.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/lfortran-coding-agents.jsonld"}}
