Apple II Agent: An AI Coding Environment for the Apple II

The author revived an open source Apple II Agent project in which an Apple IIe client connects over an Uthernet II Ethernet card, via a Mac proxy with Claude API access, to Anthropic's Claude Opus model so AI can write software through a chat on the machine itself. After automated testing in emulators on the proxy, the agent deploys new BASIC or assembly programs directly into real Apple II memory over the Ethernet link, and the author has made mouse-supported solitaire games and a Sim City clone. The code is on GitHub, the proxy runs on a Unix-like machine, and the Apple II end currently requires an Uthernet II card though it could be adapted to other network interfaces.
