Gonk: a Mac agent running a private Android container files taxes and orders pizza
andersonbcdefg · x · 2026-10-18
Gonk is an agent that runs a private Android container on your Mac, letting most web and Android apps be automated. The creator used it to file taxes, orchestrate multiple coding agent harnesses, track tasks, handle homeowner insurance, and order pizza via DoorDash—the demo screenshot shows a "needs your approval" card with full order details ($49.23 total) before payment. It's a paid product combining phone-app automation with human-approval guardrails.
