For an example of running a REPL instance over [`curl(1)`][], see:
<https://gist.github.com/TooTallNate/2053342>.

This example is intended purely for educational purposes to demonstrate how
Node.js REPLs can be started using different I/O streams.
It should **not** be used in production environments or any context where security
is a concern without additional protective measures.
If you need to implement REPLs in a real-world application, consider alternative
approaches that mitigate these risks, such as using secure input mechanisms and
avoiding open network interfaces.
