Large language models are good at writing code. Data from Anthropic shows that allowing Claude to execute scripts, rather than relying on sequential tool calls, reduces token consumption by an average of 37%, with some use cases seeing reductions as high as 98%.
Untrusted code needs a secure and isolated place to execute. We solved this withcode execution sandboxes (powered byone-off dynos), launched alongsideHeroku Managed Inference and Agents in May 2025.

If you’ve ever debugged a production incident, you know the drill: IDE on one screen, Splunk on another, Sentry open in a third tab, frantically copying error messages between windows while your PagerDuty keeps buzzing.
You ask “What errors spiked in the last hour?” but instead of an answer, you have to context-switch, recall complex query syntax, and mentally correlate log timestamps with your code. By the time you find the relevant log, you’ve lost your flow. Meanwhile the incident clock keeps ticking away.
The workflow below fixes that broken loop. We’ll show you how to use theModel Context …
