Could you build this?

No This requires reverse-engineering the proprietary PlayStation Vita OS/kernel and writing a native C plugin for taiHEN/Quick Menu injection.

What it would actually take: Building this requires setting up the VitaSDK cross-compilation environment and writing C code using internal Sony kernel/user APIs. Developers must hook into the SceShell process, interact with power management subsystems to prevent screen blanking/sleep, and register custom items in the PS Vita Quick Menu via taiHEN hooks. This requires deep console-specific homebrew development and reverse-engineering skills.
