Could you build this?
Partial Building a management UI is trivial, but orchestrating isolated, ephemeral Linux virtual machines with headless desktop rendering (VNC/noVNC), security sandboxing, and agent tool execution is non-trivial.
What it would actually take: Requires Docker or microVM infrastructure (like Firecracker) orchestrated via a lightweight hypervisor API, paired with virtual framebuffers (Xvfb/x11vnc) streamed via WebSockets/noVNC. Managing sandboxed execution environments, network isolation, and session persistence demands systems-level backend engineering.
