Could you build this?
No This is academic AI research exploring the theoretical and practical limits of LLMs in automated planning and formal logic.
What it would actually take: Conducting this research requires designing benchmark environments (such as Blocksworld or PDDL-based planning domains), rigorous empirical experimentation across frontier models, and evaluating formal solver integrations (like SAT or SMT solvers). The hard part is theoretical formulation of search algorithms versus autoregressive next-token prediction limits. Requires PhD-level AI research expertise in automated reasoning and planning theory.
