What it actually did when run

observed

Loaded in a sandbox with no network, a read-only filesystem and a recording stand-in for pi's API. This is what it called — not what the source suggests it might.

Replaces pi's built-in tools: read, write, edit, bash. Every use of those tools goes through this package instead of pi.
