    Beyond the Crawl: A Coding Agent for Proprietary Programming Languages
    May 17, 2026

    General-purpose coding models perform well on languages that are well-represented on the public internet. They fail predictably on proprietary or domain-specific languages: hallucinated identifiers, wrong call shapes, and confident reproduction of deprecated patterns. MOCA, the scripting language inside Blue Yonder’s Warehouse Management System, is one of those failure cases, the entire ecosystem (grammar, command catalog,

    For the past couple of years, we’ve seen a massive push toward Specialized LLMs. The argument seems intuitive: if you need legal expertise, use a legal model. If you need medical expertise, use a medical model. Why rely on a “general” model when you can have one trained specifically for the task at hand? In
