Could you build this?

Partial The dashboard and policy configuration UI can be vibe-coded, but enforcing runtime security guardrails across arbitrary agent CLI executions requires low-level process hooking or container isolation.

What it would actually take: A real runtime guardrail platform requires an agent-side wrapper or kernel-level proxy (using eBPF, ptrace, or customized shell shims) to intercept system calls, file modifications, and network egress before commands execute. The hard part is enforcing non-bypassable containment and real-time AST/command inspection with sub-millisecond overhead across various CLI environments. This requires systems security and systems programming experience.
