Could you build this?
Partial Building a simple UI wrapper around existing computer-use APIs is easy, but creating a reliable desktop agent that interacts with any arbitrary application requires complex low-level OS automation and visual grounding.
What it would actually take: The architecture requires an Electron or Rust (Tauri) desktop runtime interfacing directly with native OS accessibility APIs (Apple Accessibility, Windows UI Automation) and low-latency screen capture pipelines. Hard problems include fast multimodal vision-to-coordinate mapping, handling permission boundaries and OS modals, and self-correcting execution loops when UI actions fail.
