None of what you said qualifies as coding at run time. I think you missed at. At run time, code is executed, not designed or defined.

Okay I tell AI to do X, it writes a script and executes it to perform X, how is that not defining code runtime?
AI agents like Claude Code or Codex constantly use the technique of writing temporary scripts and executing them inline.
If your system receives 1000 requests per second, does it keep writing code while processing every request, on per request basis? I hope you understand what run time means.
Define runtime then.

With enough scale it could, however it really depends on the use case, right? If we are considering Claude Code for instance, it probably receives more than 1000+ requests per second and in many of those cases it is probably writing code or writing tool calls etc.
Or take Perplexity for example. If you ask it to calculate a large number, it will use Python to do that.
If I ask Perplexity to simulate investment for 100 years, 4% return, putting aside $50 each month, it will use Python to write code, calculate that and then when I ask it to give me a chart it will also use python to create the image.
