Could you build this?
Partial An Electron or Tauri desktop shell managing multiple CLI coding agents can be vibe-coded, but managing sandboxed terminal environments, process trees, and cross-agent concurrency cleanly across OS platforms is non-trivial.
What it would actually take: The application can be built using Tauri/Rust or Electron with React, interacting with standard agent CLIs (like Claude Code or Codex). The complex pieces involve sandboxed execution (via containers, pty terminals, or virtualization), robust git branch and state synchronization across multiple concurrent agents modifying the same repository, and IPC IPC messaging. Doing this reliably across Windows, macOS, and Linux requires solid systems programming experience.
