I posted about this also on linkedIn. I actually tried to do a bunch of agentic coding in Clojure but found that the parser really got in my way - it continuously fooled the LLM on what line number the errors actually occurred on!

This is why I made nanolang always report line numbers accurately and also have a built-in "trace mode" where, with an environment variable set, it would tell you exactly what line number was producing which C code and which behaviors were being exhibited (state changes). The LLM uses this aggressively for debugging!

Would you consider generating sourcemaps? Although they’re mainly used for minified JavaScript they sound like a perfect fit for this use case. Plus they’re so ubiquitous there’s already a ton of tooling that understands them.
