description	Recover from execute_code_sandbox failures by writing code to file and executing via run_shell

Sandbox Failure Recovery Workflow

When execute_code_sandbox fails (often due to infrastructure issues, timeouts, or complex dependencies), use this recovery pattern to achieve identical results by writing the code to a file and executing it directly.

When to Use This Skill

• execute_code_sandbox returns an error or times out
• The task involves spreadsheet generation (Excel, CSV) or file output
• You have working Python code that needs to be executed
• The sandbox environment appears unstable

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preserve the Failed Code

When execute_code_sandbox fails, capture the Python code that was attempted. If the code was generated but not saved, reconstruct it from the execution attempt.

Step 2: Write Code to File

Use write_file to save the Python script to a .py file:

write_file with:
- path: "script_name.py" (e.g., "generate_report.py", "process_data.py")
- content: <the full Python code>

Example:

# Content for write_file
import pandas as pd
from openpyxl import Workbook

# Your spreadsheet generation logic here
df = pd.DataFrame({'Revenue': [100, 200, 300]})
df.to_excel('output.xlsx', index=)
