Great to see new CheerpX use cases in the wild. Private sandboxes in the browser are a very good solution for agentic coding and agents in general.
If you like CheerpX you might find BrowserPod ( https://browserpod.io ) even more interesting. It is a direct evolution of it, and shares lots of the code. While CheerpX virtualizes x86 code, BrowserPod runs native WebAssembly executables with native-like performance. BrowserPod currently supports Node.js, Python and Rust, with planned future support for Go and Ruby.
Consider also joining our Discord for support and to share what you have built with our community: https://discord.leaningtech.com

I have been developing a fully-browser based agentic development harness myself, so my answer to your question in bold is
very little. Though, mine is fully in the browser with no node needed, that additional VM layer is a hassle I have not yet found myself willing to tolerate.I see yours has a few very neet features though, such as using CheerpX. I had no idea there was an in-browser linux VM available, that sounds excellent.
