There's a discussion in the EVi repo about needing to find people who know vimscript. Funny enough, I am planning to use contributing some vimscript to an extension as my first AI coding agent project partly because I don't know vimscript well. Although that does mean it'll be hard to critically evaluate the output. I can compare it to the rest of the code in the extension at least to make sure it fits the style.
I have been writing a vim coding assistant harness in vimscript. I'm now writing it with itself. It's a weird language, and not terribly well represented in training sets compared to other languages. But it's fun - you can do things like divide by zero. On purpose.
