what is the feasibility/crazyness level of "llm porting" the javac source code to c++ ?

setting copyright issues aside, javac is a pretty clean textual-input-output program, and It can probably be reduced to a single thread variant

Claude won't handle a project of that scale. Even with Java 7 modernization project, which is much simpler than full javac translation, I constantly hit context limits and Claude throws things like "API Error: 400 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"messages.3.content.76: `thinking` or `redacted_thinking` blocks in the latest assistant message cannot be modified. These blocks must remain as they were in the original response."},"request_id":"req_011CVWwBJpf3ZrmYGkYZLQVf"}" at me.

Could you please share the costs? I wonder how much money does it cost to Claude-out such a codebase?
