The review's two non-blocking items: (1) resolvePythonBin returned the bare
basename when PATH had no hit, and spawn (env:{}) would silently fall to
execvp's platform default PATH and could start a system interpreter the caller
never asked for. It now returns undefined for an unresolvable basename and the
load check rejects it (absolute paths pass through), so the failure is loud at
configuration time instead of silent at spawn; the case that expected a
run-time worker-exit now asserts the load rejection, consistent with the
empty/NUL pythonBin cases. (2) the over-cap exception-group case skipped on
Python < 3.11 (ExceptionGroup is a 3.11+ builtin), matching the TaskGroup
case's version guard.

code-runtime/ — code-execution capability family
English | 中文
Summary
The code-runtime/ group provides program execution: a model writes one program that calls host-provided functions as ordinary async calls, and a runtime executes it in isolation and returns only what the program printed and returned. One package defines the shared capability (ctx.codeRuntime), a second executes TypeScript programs in a fresh Node worker thread, and a third owns the wire protocol between a Node host and a CPython subprocess for the Python backend. Every run is independent — no state carries from one program to the next — and failures come back as part of the result, so the caller can see why a program failed and feed that back to the model.

Packages
These three packages together provide program execution; each README describes what its part does.

code-runtime/ |
Defines what a code runtime does: run one program against host-provided bindings and report what it printed and returned | ctx.codeRuntime |
code-runtime-worker-thread/ |
Executes TypeScript programs, each in a fresh Node worker thread | registers ctx.codeRuntime |
code-runtime-python/ |
Owns the fd-3 wire protocol between a Node host and a CPython subprocess, the Python backend's protocol layer | — |
