Could you build this?

No Building secure, multi-tenant persistent cloud developer sandboxes with live previews and AI orchestration at scale requires sophisticated infrastructure and systems virtualization engineering.

What it would actually take: A production version requires microVM virtualization (e.g., AWS Firecracker or Docker-in-Docker sandboxes) with instant snapshotting, filesystem synchronization, and ephemeral networking. It must handle dynamic port forwarding for real-time web previews, strict isolation/security sandboxing against malicious LLM-generated bash commands, and stateful agent session resumption. This requires deep systems, cloud infrastructure, and security engineering.
