Could you build this?

Partial While basic agent workflows calling GitHub APIs and web search can be prototyped, an autonomous employee agent running sandbox execution environments safely and handling complex multi-step dev tasks requires sophisticated infra.

What it would actually take: A production version requires secure, isolated container sandboxing (e.g., Firecracker microVMs or Docker) to execute arbitrary code and web browsing safely. The core difficulty lies in long-horizon planning, error recovery, context window management, and deterministic repository state manipulation without hallucinated breakages. It demands distributed worker architecture, browser automation clusters (Playwright), and deep prompt-chaining/agent evaluation harnesses.
