Could you build this?

Partial Creating a music player interface is trivial, but implementing the Soulseek P2P network protocol with NAT traversal, distributed searching, and peer-to-peer file streaming requires handling tricky legacy network protocols.

What it would actually take: The architecture requires an Electron/React front-end paired with a Node.js, Go, or Python background process implementing the Soulseek binary protocol (or wrapping existing open-source libraries like slsk-client). The hard components are robust TCP connection pooling, DHT/distributed message handling, and port forwarding/NAT punch-through to reliably stream audio directly from peers. This necessitates familiarity with peer-to-peer network protocols, binary socket streaming, and decentralized transfer diagnostics.
