The browser is the sandbox

What are the limits of this? Could you replicate Gemini CLI in the browser but with better ux to support non Agentic coding use cases?

Could this be used with arbitrary local tools as well? I could be missing something but I don't see how you could use a non remote MCP server with this setup.

I don't want to say Yes... but... given all of these tools are mostly built with JS and wrapped in a TUI we could probably go some way to having it run in the browser. There are fewer and fewer Node based APIs that haven't got a way to run in the browser.

It looks like co-do platform sandboxes the WASM tools, meaning you can't introduce a custom tool that allows pulling in remote data. How would you go about, say, adding custom mcp servers into a tool like you've created? Super interesting!
