Could you build this?
Partial A visual DAG editor can be built quickly, but an autonomous software engineering execution engine executing loops, tests, and code generation reliably requires complex distributed orchestration and sandboxing.
What it would actually take: The architecture requires a frontend graph canvas (e.g., React Flow) coupled with a containerized backend execution engine (Temporal, Docker, or Kubernetes-based sandboxes). The hard challenge is safe, deterministic code execution in ephemeral sandboxed environments, resilient state-machine execution loops, and automated error-recovery heuristics. It demands deep systems engineering and container security expertise.
