Benoît is a self-interpreting, self-evolving, self-proving programming language where every line is simultaneously code, test, proof, and documentation. Version 0.8.0 runs .ben files natively via a Pratt parser and tree-walking evaluator (zero eval, zero new Function), offers 68% token reduction compared to equivalent JavaScript, and includes a genetic algorithm (evolve.mjs) that discovers functions from assertions alone with 80% success rate. Active development with monthly releases, it targets Node >=18 and focuses on human-AI collaboration, pattern matching with guards, pipes, async/await, and a built-in property inference engine that detects 31 mathematical properties automatically. Unlike traditional languages, there is no separation between code, tests, and documentation.
