pretty good so far, I could probably remove one or two, but this is good pace.

no, just when you've defined about 60 or so.
It's a challenge to see how few words you need to define all other words.
Kind of curious what words you ended up going for.
do, maycopy, zap, swap, buryd, cat, between (you can define head ((1) (1) between) and behead ((2) (99) between) easily, so there's no reason to use anything else), same (or equivalent? pretty sure any of like replace or the substring searches can pull it off too) are all seemingly obvious choices, but it feels like nothing else should actually be necessary and making everything is awful. or is it possible to go without even all of those (or equivalent that ends up being the same amount of words)? I also haven't unlocked all the words yet, so there might be something useful in the later ones that can replace multiple of these.
Or some weird behavior you can't replicate using these somehow; I haven't made all the earlygame words either, since I was too lazy to work on fundimentals and just wanted to find the silliest solutions to the words that don't use loops... but I'll probably have to give this a go sometime. Or I might've just forgotten some behaviors you need that are pretty obviously not replicable with that list (I added the Same equivalent in an edit lol)
what section are you at? I imagine at some points you have to have some word to create other words. idk if you found some cheese, but behead at least is definitely cheesed, so you couldn't really do that "intended".
I have titlecase because I was too lazy to do it manually (I know it's easy I'll get to it)
I have two may verbs, mostly because I didn't want to worry about the logic atm.
I have box because at the time I couldn't figure it out, but I have some ideas when I get to it.
I have dig, digd, and flip, but I think I can get that to 1 word using X dig later
head, cat, and behead for other word stuff
differ for logic
superinduce, because it felt like the best "do" verb to me
and finally, sub, for arithmetic.
I'm at 15 right now. And I don't see anything as being "cheese" for an optimization challenge like this, anything that the game allows is fair for me. Like, I have a proper solution to behead, but there's no reason why I'd pick behead as a fundamental word (as you did) over between when between exists.
Simplest Box I know is ((?)) format. (edit: wrong word lmao) (well, for the golf metric it's something else with fewer chars, but you're not going to define split without some sort of box already defined.)
Actually, Tac is just ?? format. I suppose that one can be used in place of cat as a fundamental.
