"From Scratch" yet they used coding agents which have ingested all source code known to man. Cool, but not from scratch.

By that definition no human programmer writes anything from scratch either.

They mention the use of LLM. Did the LLM create any code in the project?

LLM is a general purpose tool, it's not trained on a specific task. Again, using this logic you'd have to train a human developer from scratch for every program you write.
