I made Muse AI install RuneScape in its own Linux VM and actually play it

A user prompted the Muse AI agent to install Old School RuneScape inside its own Linux VM and play for real:
- Setup: it grabbed the RuneLite jar, installed Java 17, configured a virtual display, and navigated blind via screenshots and auto-clicking.
- Networking: the sandbox DNS returned fake IPs for Jagex servers; the agent switched to DNS-over-HTTPS for real IPs and verified proxy access. After Java libraries ignored proxy settings and RuneLite forked a new process losing them, it gave up per-app config and forced all traffic through the proxy at the OS level.
- Login: it implemented Jagex's OAuth flow itself and saved the session; only Cloudflare's bot check blocked it, so the human completed login on a phone and pasted the redirect links back — discovering only one token in the redirect actually matters.
- It then bypassed the launcher, launched the game directly with the saved session, and is still grinding through the tutorial.
