fix: remove code interpeter implementation (#2087)
# What does this PR do?

The builtin implementation of code interpreter is not robust and has a
really weak sandboxing shell (the `bubblewrap` container). Given the
availability of better MCP code interpreter servers coming up, we should
use them instead of baking an implementation into the Stack and
expanding the vulnerability surface to the rest of the Stack.

This PR only does the removal. We will add examples with how to
integrate with MCPs in subsequent ones.

Meta Reference Distribution

:maxdepth: 2
:hidden:

self

The llamastack/distribution-meta-reference-gpu distribution consists of the following provider configurations:

API Provider(s)
agents inline::meta-reference
datasetio remote::huggingface, inline::localfs
eval inline::meta-reference
inference inline::meta-reference
safety inline::llama-guard
scoring inline::basic, inline::llm-as-judge, inline::braintrust
telemetry inline::meta-reference
tool_runtime remote::brave-search, remote::tavily-search, inline::rag-runtime, remote::model-context-protocol
vector_io inline::faiss, remote::chromadb, remote::pgvector

Note that you need access to nvidia GPUs to run this distribution. This distribution is not compatible with CPU-only machines or machines with AMD GPUs.

Environment Variables

The following environment variables can be configured:

  • LLAMA_STACK_PORT: Port for the Llama Stack distribution server (default: 8321)
  • INFERENCE_MODEL: Inference model loaded into the Meta Reference server (default: meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct)
  • INFERENCE_CHECKPOINT_DIR: Directory containing the Meta Reference model checkpoint (default: null)
  • SAFETY_MODEL: Name of the safety (Llama-Guard) model to use (default: meta-llama/Llama-Guard-3-1B)
  • SAFETY_CHECKPOINT_DIR: Directory containing the Llama-Guard model checkpoint (default: null)

Prerequisite: Downloading Models

Please use llama model list --downloaded to check that you have llama model checkpoints downloaded in ~/.llama before proceeding. See installation guide here to download the models. Run llama model list to see the available models to download, and llama model download to download the checkpoints.

$ llama model list --downloaded

Running the Distribution

You can do this via Conda (build code) or Docker which has a pre-built image.

Via Docker

This method allows you to get started quickly without having to build the distribution code.

LLAMA_STACK_PORT=8321
docker run \
  -it \
  --pull always \
  --gpu all \
  -p $LLAMA_STACK_PORT:$LLAMA_STACK_PORT \
  -v ~/.llama:/root/.llama \
  llamastack/distribution-meta-reference-gpu \
  --port $LLAMA_STACK_PORT \
  --env INFERENCE_MODEL=meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct

If you are using Llama Stack Safety / Shield APIs, use:

docker run \
  -it \
  --pull always \
  --gpu all \
  -p $LLAMA_STACK_PORT:$LLAMA_STACK_PORT \
  -v ~/.llama:/root/.llama \
  llamastack/distribution-meta-reference-gpu \
  --port $LLAMA_STACK_PORT \
  --env INFERENCE_MODEL=meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct \
  --env SAFETY_MODEL=meta-llama/Llama-Guard-3-1B

Via Conda

Make sure you have done uv pip install llama-stack and have the Llama Stack CLI available.

llama stack build --template meta-reference-gpu --image-type conda
llama stack run distributions/meta-reference-gpu/run.yaml \
  --port 8321 \
  --env INFERENCE_MODEL=meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct

If you are using Llama Stack Safety / Shield APIs, use:

llama stack run distributions/meta-reference-gpu/run-with-safety.yaml \
  --port 8321 \
  --env INFERENCE_MODEL=meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct \
  --env SAFETY_MODEL=meta-llama/Llama-Guard-3-1B
