> It's fascinating that browsers are one of the most robust and widely available sandboxing system and we are yet to make a claude-code/gemini-cli like agent that runs inside the browser.

It's easily explained by the fact that all the javascript code is exposed in a browser and all the network connections are trivially inspectable and blockable. It's much harder to collect data and do shady things with that level of inspectability. And it's much harder to ban alternative clients for the main paid offer. Especially if AI companies want to leave the door open to pushing ads to your conversations.
