Could you build this?
No Forking and modifying Chromium to build a desktop browser with background autonomous agent execution, cross-tab state orchestration, and native MCP server protocols requires elite browser internals and systems engineering.
What it would actually take: This requires maintaining a custom Chromium or Electron/CEF fork, implementing native background process sandboxing, and hooking into the browser's DevTools Protocol (CDP) or C++ core engine. An agentic execution harness must manage local authentication cookies, session persistence, deterministic DOM manipulation, and schedule-based execution across isolated tabs without UI freezing. Deep systems programming in C++/Rust and deep familiarity with Chromium's multi-process architecture are required.
