Could you build this?
Partial A bash-like interface in a web UI is vibe-codeable, but a secure sandbox that actually isolates commands needs real OS-level isolation work that vibe coding alone won't produce safely.
What it would actually take: The front end is a terminal emulator (such as xterm.js) connected to a backend. The hard piece is containment: running untrusted shell commands needs containers, microVMs, seccomp/namespaces or a WASM-based runtime with resource limits and filesystem isolation. Getting that right requires systems and security engineering experience.
