Running Python code in a sandbox with MicroPython and WASM · Source Simon tackles the security risks of running fully privileged plugin code in Python applications by embedding MicroPython within a WebAssembly environment. Using AI assistants like GPT-5.5 Pro, Codex Desktop, and Claude, he rapidly prototyped micropython-wasm, an alpha package that maintains persistent interpreter state and strictly controls file, network, and host function access. This vibe-coded sandbox is already powering a new code execution plugin for Datasette Agent, demonstrating a highly practical approach to executing AI-generated code safely without compromising the host system.
