It does not have any clean way to pass arguments. However, since you are passing code as a string anyway, you can simply add the arguments directly to the string:

var arg = 'Hello';
var code = "(function(name) { return 'Hi there, ' + name + '!'; })("+ JSON.stringify(arg) +")"
s.run(code, ...);

I'm using JSON.stringify to ensure that the string is a valid JS expression.
