I understand why you ended up with that choice of words, since it is not trivial to find a better phrase. `target` was just the first word that popped up in my mind.

I thought about this for a while now, and I ended up asking ChatGPT. It suggested the (in retrospect obvious) combination `execution target`. I think that's okay. It has the somewhat more formal nuance than `what to execute`, but still gets the preciseness of `what to execute`.
