Describes a person whose entire personality screams 'I do things rather than discuss things.' Action coded people have a particular energy — they arrive at parties already committed to a plan, they respond to group chats with 'I'll handle it,' they don't post about goals they post about completions.

Common in literature, art, certain friendship dynamics, and any situationship that refuses to name itself.
