+"""Solve a coding task with a hosted LLM via Hugging Face Inference.
+
+This script mirrors ``textarena_wordle_inference.py`` but targets the Coding
+environment. It launches the CodingEnv Docker image locally and asks an
+OpenAI-compatible model served through Hugging Face's router to iteratively
+produce Python code until the task is solved.
+
+Prerequisites
+-------------
+1. Build the Coding environment Docker image::
+
+       docker build \
+           -f src/envs/coding_env/server/Dockerfile \
+           -t coding-env:latest .
+
+2. Set your Hugging Face token, or any other API key that is compatible with the OpenAI API:
+
+       export HF_TOKEN=your_token_here
+       export API_KEY=your_api_key_here
+
+3. Run the script::
+
+       python examples/coding_env_inference.py
+
+The script keeps sending execution feedback to the model until it prints
+``Result: 338350`` or reaches the configured step limit.
