Could you build this?

Partial Basic screenshot-and-click wrappers around vision models exist, but an effective, versatile cross-platform computer-use agent requires robust OS accessibility APIs and low-latency interaction loops.

What it would actually take: Requires building an OS-level agent runner using tools like PyAutoGUI, accessibility trees (UIAutomation on Windows, AXUIElement on macOS), and vision-language models (e.g., Anthropic Computer Use API). Challenges include coordinate mapping across multiple DPI screens, error recovery, and sandbox isolation.
