# Run Code

The Run Code tool enables the chatbot to write and execute code within the chat — returning live output, calculations, and results directly in the conversation.

***

#### What It Does

When Run Code is enabled, the model can write a script and execute it — not just generate code as text. You get actual output, not a suggestion of what the output might be.

Common use cases:

* Data analysis and transformation
* Algorithm testing and debugging
* Mathematical and statistical calculations
* Automation script development
* Processing and summarizing datasets

***

#### How to Enable It

Toggle **Run Code** on in the Toolkit panel and describe what you need in your prompt.

**Example prompt:**

```
Calculate the month-over-month growth rate from this
dataset and return the results as a formatted table.
```

{% hint style="info" %}
Combine Run Code with Spreadsheet Analysis for data-heavy tasks — upload a CSV, enable both tools, and ask the model to clean, analyze, and return structured results in one pass.
