open notebook in "run" mode from editor

[danielkovi]

Description

It would be really cool if one could open a notebook in the Workspace from the editor main window right into "run" mode

@mscolnick suggested in this thread it should be possible via some query parameter mode=run which I imagined like:\ localhost:2718/?file=notebook.py&mode=run\ but I could not get it running on locally running marimo editor server, was always in edit mode

it would help testing and even using notebooks locally without the extra steps of spawning a new running server, plus that gets a new port number which is sometimes inconvenient on strict corporate networks

Suggested solution

could be 2 icons on single "pop-out" on editor page:

• fluent-emoji:play-button for opening it in new tab in run mode
• noto:hammer-and-wrench for opening it in new tab in edit mode i.e. the current way

it could look something like this:\
