Could you build this?
Partial A simple Android app shell is buildable, but creating a virtual display, capturing it, and injecting input for agents depends on low-level Android APIs, permissions, and sometimes root or ADB tricks that vibe coding handles poorly.
What it would actually take: Use Android's VirtualDisplay and MediaProjection APIs with a MediaCodec-based video stream, plus an input injection path such as InputManager or an ADB/shell bridge. Exposing it to agents means a server (WebSocket or MCP) with screenshot and tap/swipe tools. The hard parts are Android internals, version-specific behavior, and device permissions, which need someone who has done Android system or emulator work.
