Is there a way to generate bytecode directly from a .tl file with Teal?

[MichaelBonnet]

I have a use case where I want to put the code through as many checks as possible before sending it out for use, and including the bytecode compile step would be part of that. I can construct a workflow where Teal compilation happens first then luac compilation happens, but doing it in one step would be cool.

You should be able to use string.dump(load(<output from tl.generate>)) from Lua.
There isn't any direct way to do that from the CLI.
