Could you build this?
No Druids coordinates, provisions, and deploys autonomous coding agents across distributed heterogenous machines, requiring low-level networking, remote process control, and machine orchestration.
What it would actually take: This requires building a distributed agent orchestration daemon (similar to Nomad or Kubernetes runner nodes) communicating via gRPC/mTLS across multi-cloud or bare-metal machines. The system must support isolated remote execution environments, live stdout/stdin streaming over WebSockets, synchronized git workspaces, and resource fencing (cgroups/namespaces) to prevent rogue agent behavior.
