Description

We might be able to compile something like to https://github.com/vercel-labs/just-bash/tree/main/packages/just-bash wasm. Or maybe even bash its self.

Things to consider:

  • how would other guest runtimes support "python" and "bash" at the same time. With wasm we could have two different components compiled together

Research direction

Start with the existing guest-sandbox run command and trace how commands are exposed to guest runtimes. Evaluate the just-bash WebAssembly option alongside support for Python, including whether runtimes can provide both commands together. Done means a defined Bash command approach and a clear plan for runtime coexistence.
