If you don't have access we can probably paraphrase the main points. To run User supplied scripts will entail the use of NSUserAppleScriptTask et al. The sandbox will allow your app to read user scripts from ~/Library/Application Scripts/code-signing-identifier aka NSApplicationScriptsDirectory. The crucial point is that your app has no write access to NSApplicationScriptsDirectory. The user has to manually move scripts into that folder. This move signals user interaction, in the same way that running a script from the command line does, and the script is permitted to escape the sandbox. The sandbox places no restriction on receiving AppleEvents. The restriction is on sending them.
