I personally won't allow full control for a long time.

On the other hand LLMs have been a very good tool to build bespoke tools (scripts, small CLI apps) that I can allow them to use. I prefer the constraints without having to think about sandboxing all of it, I design the tools for my workflow/needs, and make them available for the LLM when needed.

It's been a great middle ground, and actually very simple to do with AI-assisted code.

I don't "vibecode" the tools though, I still like to be in the loop acting more as a designer/reviewer of these tools, and let the LLM be the code writer.

But does the agent have access to a whole computer to write those tools?

Couldn't it write them in a web based dev environment?
