Could you build this?

Partial The high-level closed-loop controller script is vibe-codeable, but real-time kinematic control, IK solvers, and physics calibration in MuJoCo require robotics expertise.

What it would actually take: Built with Python, MuJoCo physics simulation, and robotics kinematics libraries (e.g., Pinocchio or PyKDL for Jacobian inverse kinematics). The difficult part is formulating robust task-space Cartesian controllers, handling contact dynamics, and tuning trajectory planning to prevent singularity or stability failures.
