An experimental web server that replaces all application logic with an LLM making real-time decisions. Instead of writing code for routes, controllers, or business logic, the system gives an AI three tools (database queries, HTTP responses, and memory updates) and lets it handle every request dynamically. The proof-of-concept contact manager works but runs 300-6000x slower and costs 100-1000x more than traditional apps, with consistency issues from lack of design memory. Despite severe performance limitations, the experiment demonstrates that LLMs can successfully handle full application logic, suggesting current bottlenecks are engineering challenges rather than fundamental capability gaps.
