Interesting, could you elaborate? I would believe natural language
processing includes a lot of grammar construction; Meredith should be
able to tell.

I'm the author of that parser and the process was entirely manual: Take
fragmentary syntax descriptions from the spec, write grammatical
representations reflecting them, glue things together with appropriate
combinators.

Writing in more detail about the process is in fact on the top of my
LangSec todo list.
