About X07

X07 is built for a world where coding agents do most of the coding.

That changes what matters:

• Determinism beats “cleverness”
• Canonical encodings beat “flexibility”
• Machine-readable diagnostics beat “nice error strings”
• Stable boundaries beat ad-hoc conventions

X07 is open-source, with direction guided through:

• clear technical governance,
• strict compatibility policies for pinned specs,
• a small core toolchain and a larger ecosystem of packages.

What X07 is not

• A sandbox for running hostile, untrusted code.
• A language that optimizes primarily for human hand-writing.
• A language that allows unlimited “styles” for the same task.

What X07 is

• A deterministic substrate for autonomous repair loops.
• A practical C-backend systems language.
• A library ecosystem designed around pinned contracts.
