Not a dumb question at all! Unison's type system uses Abilities (algebraic effects) for functional effect management. On a type level, that means we can prevent effects like "run arbitrary IO" on a distributed runtime. Things that run on shared infrastructure can be "sandboxed" and prevented with type safety.

The browser or mobile apps cannot execute arbitrary code on the server. Those would typically call regular Unison services in a standard API.
