Though there are a couple caveats as to what code is available. Quoting from the github:

> implementation contains an implementation of the evolutionary algorithm, code manipulation routines, and a single-threaded implementation of the FunSearch pipeline. It does not contain language models for generating new programs, the sandbox for executing untrusted code, nor the infrastructure for running FunSearch on our distributed system. This directory is intended to be useful for understanding the details of our method, and for adapting it for use with any available language models, sandboxes, and distributed systems.

I don’t care about their sandbox or distributed system. They are irrelevant to the method. The missing language model for program generation is disappointing but I imagine anyone interested in replication, myself included, would prefer to roll their own.
