It's a domain-specific language designed to improve how AI coding assistants interact with codebases and communicate their code modification intentions.

It provides a standardized way to express complex code modification and analysis operations, making it easier for AI-assisted development tools to understand and execute these tasks.

It also works as a gateway to external tools, so that the LLM can easily call local shell commands, external HTTP API endpoints, etc

Imagine a vast library (your codebase) with millions of books (files) across thousands of shelves (directories). Traditional code editing is like manually searching through each book, line by line, character by character, to find relevant information or make changes.

This magical librarian (CEDARScript) collaborates with the LLM and allows it to assume the role of an Architect who can work with your vast library of code at a higher level, making both understanding and modifying your codebase faster and more intuitive. It bridges the gap between the LLM's high-level intent and the nitty-gritty details of code structure, allowing the architect to focus on the 'what' while it handles the 'how' of code analysis and modification.

CEDARScript (Concise Examination, Development, And Refactoring Script) is a SQL-like language designed to lower costs and improve the efficiency and accuracy of AI code assistants. It enables offloading low-level code syntax and structure concerns, such as indentation and line counting, from the LLMs. It aims to improve how AI coding assistants interact with codebases and communicate their code modification intentions by providing a standardized and concise way to express complex code analysis and modification operations, making it easier for AI-assisted development tools to understand and execute these tasks.
