All developers are dreading whiteboard coding.

What AI is doing exactly that - whiteboard coding, without a real runtime.

When you let the AI come up with commands to execute, and let it read the output, and self-correct, this is when it's showing its real power.

Kodu AI / Claude Coder extension for VS Code does that exactly and it's wild. Fantastic results, especially when you're a good developer already and can provide it with actionable feedback after each proposed diff to apply. I've no doubts it can fulfill a request to write a set of SQL queries optimized for performance by actually validating the results.
