In various comments in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46624541 I have explained at length why your fleet of autonomous agents failed miserably at building something that could be seen as a valid POC.
One example: your rendering loop does not follow the web specs and makes no sense.
The actual code is worse; I can only describe it as a tangle of spaghetti. As a Browser expert I can't make much, if anything, out of it. In comparison, when I look at code in Ladybird, a project I am not involved in, I can instantly find my way around the code because I know the web specs.
So I agree this isn't just wiring up of dependencies, and neither is it copied from existing implementations: it's a uniquely bad design that could never support anything resembling a real-world web engine.
Now don't get me wrong, I do think AI could be leveraged to build a web engine, but not by unleashing autonomous agents. You need humans in the loop at all levels of abstractions; the agents should only be used to bang out features re-using patterns established or vetted by human experts.

The above design document is simply nonsense; typical AI hallucinated BS. Detailed critique at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46705625
