Could you build this?
Partial A basic CLI tool invoking LLM APIs is easy to assemble, but bundling a unified static binary containing an Agent Client Protocol server, subagent orchestrator, and robust local sandbox execution is tricky.
What it would actually take: The binary would likely be compiled in Go or Rust, integrating terminal UI libraries, subagent process management, IPC primitives, and protocol servers (ACP/A2A). The hard part is implementing robust, cross-platform terminal emulation, bidirectional process I/O streaming, and multi-agent coordination without deadlock. It requires solid low-level systems programming and agent protocol specification expertise.
