Vera: a programming language designed for machines to write

SMRTR summary

Vera is a new programming language designed specifically for LLMs to write, not humans. It eliminates variable names in favor of structural slot references, enforces mandatory contracts verified by an SMT solver, and types all side effects explicitly. The goal: if a model's code is wrong, it won't compile. Early benchmarks show Kimi K2.5 achieving 100% correctness on Vera, beating both Python and TypeScript.
