Read Original

The article details a significant, undocumented upgrade to ChatGPT's code execution container (formerly Code Interpreter). It can now run bash commands, execute code in 10+ languages (including JavaScript, Go, Java), and install packages using pip and npm via a proxy. A new 'container.download' tool also allows fetching files from the web into the sandbox.
