It tests the underlying query engine to see if it passes those tests.

So at that point, I was like, OK, does it actually work?

Because the robot says it works.

So I spun up a Prometheus server on my laptop and I spun up this InfluxDB server.

I set up Prometheus to do remote writes to the InfluxDB server.

I set up to scrape the node exporter, basic system stats, CPU, memory, disk, all that stuff.

And then I set up Grafana and I pointed a system metrics dashboard at Prometheus.

I pointed at InfluxDB.

I looked at the two and they were the same.

I was like, wow, it actually created a completely compatible implementation of PromQL.

And this was like...

60,000 lines of code, and I didn't write a single line of it, like not a one.

And I didn't really, other than the, like I said, the overall structure, the project structure, I didn't really do anything else.

But again, like it had the Go implementation to go off of and it used that.

And to me, that was just like a wild experience, right?

I finished that in like...

or like mid-September.

I was just like, this is crazy.

And then of course, at that stage in mid-September, I was very much in the Codex camp because I was using, I think it was like Codex 5.1 or 5 at that point, right?

And I kind of like freely interchanged between both Cloud Code and the Codex CLI.
