Could you build this?
Partial While basic automation scripts can be vibe-coded, an on-device Android workflow harness with accessibility APIs and AI agent orchestration requires nuanced Android platform internals.
What it would actually take: A proper system requires an Android Kotlin app implementing Accessibility Services and MediaProjection APIs to observe screen state and inject touches/gestures, combined with an on-device workflow engine or background daemon. It must interface with local LLMs (e.g., via MLC-LLM or MediaPipe) or remote APIs while managing battery, background execution limits, and Android permission sandboxes. The hard parts are robust UI tree hierarchy parsing, persistent background services across various OEM Android builds, and low-latency agent loop execution.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a workflow automation tool for Real estate yet.
