Anonymous remote code, compile, & execution API for humans & machine learning agents.
Docs 📚 View Pricing →The Common Lisp examples below require the following 3rd party libraries:
dexadorjonathan
Make sure these packages are installed in your environment before running the examples.
Execute code immediately and wait for results. Best for quick scripts and interactive use.

Possible Status Values
pending- Job queued, waiting to executerunning- Job currently executingcompleted- Job finished (check result field)timeout- Job exceeded TTL limitcancelled- Job was cancelled via DELETE
List all active (pending or running) jobs for your API key. Useful for monitoring multiple async executions.
