If you're like me and you're still wondering what "codemode" is after reading the article and comments:

It's giving the harness a small js sandbox to compose tool calls and manipulate the data they return before reading it into context.

Yes codemode is just replacing bash with sandboxed JavaScript.

Makes sense but why not use bun repl or some other repl, rather than a new sandbox.

The sandbox is the point.

Feels like a solution to the wrong problem.

It kinda makes sense at least at this point. Models already drop down to writing scripts all the time (even for edits), why not make the write scripts for tools.

It is still kinda bullshit because model training will override any "please create scripts no mistake pls" markdown files thrown at them, so they will happily ignore Codemod
