Code Execution

Execute Python locally with API access. 90-99% token savings for bulk operations.

Bulk operations (10+ files)
Complex multi-step workflows
Iterative processing across many files
User mentions efficiency/performance

How to Use

Use direct Python imports in Claude Code:

from execution_runtime import fs, code, transform, git

# Code analysis (metadata only!)
functions = code.find_functions('app.py', pattern='handle_.*')

# File operations
code_block = fs.copy_lines('source.py', 10, 20)
fs.paste_code('target.py', 50, code_block)

# Bulk transformations
result = transform.rename_identifier('.', 'oldName', 'newName', '**/*.py')

# Git operations
git.git_add(['.'])
git.git_commit('feat: refactor code')
