Subject: [PATCH] Load environment variables from a `.env` file using
 `python-dotenv` package.

# Context:
USER: load dotenv
ASSISTANT: To load environment variables from a `.env` file using the `python-dotenv` package, you can add the following lines at the beginning of the `main()` function in the `coder.py` file:

```python
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv

load_dotenv()
```

You will also need to install the `python-dotenv` package if you haven't already. You can install it using pip:

```
pip install python-dotenv
```

Here's the change to the `coder.py` file:

```python
coder.py
<<<<<<< ORIGINAL
def main():
    env_prefix = "CODER_"
=======
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv

def main():
    load_dotenv()
    env_prefix = "CODER_"
>>>>>>> UPDATED
```
