Could you build this?

Partial Creating a desktop wrapper is easy, but integrating deeply with GPUI (Zed's GPU-accelerated UI framework) and native low-level agent runtimes requires specialized Rust UI and systems programming expertise.

What it would actually take: A developer must work with Rust, GPUI/GPUIX, and libfx systems bindings. The primary challenge lies in low-level rendering pipelines, reactive state synchronization with high-throughput native agent event streams, and managing platform-specific windowing and GPU contexts in Rust.
