Could you build this?

Partial Managing isolated process sandboxes, git worktree orchestration, secure credential injection, and desktop OS integrations across multiple concurrent agent runtimes is an involved systems software task.

What it would actually take: Requires an Electron, Tauri, or Swift-based macOS application integrating deeply with the OS process tree, pseudo-terminals, macOS Keychain, and Git plumbing APIs. The hard part is sandboxing autonomous agent processes, safely intercepting network calls/production tokens, and orchestrating multiple headless agents without race conditions or memory leaks. Requires senior macOS systems programming and security engineering expertise.
