Partial The companion desktop and mobile steering UI is vibe-codeable, but orchestrating remote headless cloud VM lifecycles, real-time bidirectional streaming, and fine-grained agent sandboxing requires robust backend systems engineering.
What it would actually take: The product stack consists of cross-platform apps (Tauri/Electron + Flutter/React Native) communicating via WebSockets or WebRTC with a cloud orchestration backend. The complex part is the agent daemon running in isolated cloud sandboxes (e.g., E2B, Daytona, Firecracker), managing secure bash execution, fine-grained permission proxies (MCP server filtering, path-level interceptors), persistent sessions across network drops, and mobile push notification delivery for prompt approvals.
