Could you build this?
Partial A basic CLI or dashboard orchestrating processes is easy to vibe-code, but robust multi-agent orchestration on Linux requires complex process isolation, cgroups/namespaces, and IPC management.
What it would actually take: A production tool requires systems programming in Go or Rust leveraging Linux cgroups, namespaces, and pty management to sandbox concurrent coding agents safely. The hard part is resource throttling, preventing fork bombs or rogue agent behaviors, and managing shared filesystem access without race conditions. Systems engineering expertise in Linux container primitives is essential.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a agent / copilot tool for Agriculture yet.
