@ai6yr That last bit is engineering, that last bit is science in the abstract, or any creative enterprise. That last bit is digging up more than boiler plate GenAI stuff, that last bit is connecting all the dots.
And for now, this is beyond reach for these LLM models (as it is an out of distribution problem). And if it can be solved by "agents", it still is tremendously wasteful of energy for what is just sitting down and problem solving (also called thinking).

@koen_hufkens Exactly! It's not the code... it's understanding why/how.
@ai6yr Some general observation in this context. For many students failure is hard.
Not that it is easy for anyone, but if you are never taught that this is part of the process it really bites.
In this context, teaching to the test (not doing open ended work) is doing a lot of students a great disservice.
If students ask me how I can figure out things I've never seen before I tell them I fail faster* and read manuals 😬
