Could you build this?
No Building a cross-platform desktop GUI client that natively connects to over a dozen distinct database wire protocols, handles SSH tunnels, and manages local OS keychains requires deep native systems engineering.
What it would actually take: The app is implemented as a native desktop client (e.g., Rust/Tauri or C++/WebKitGTK) implementing wire-level protocols and client libraries for Postgres, MySQL, Cassandra CQL, ClickHouse, Redis, and MongoDB, alongside SFTP and S3 drivers. The hard parts include handling diverse binary wire protocols, streaming large result sets without memory exhaustion, managing background query cancellation threads, SSH tunneling, and direct OS keychain integration.
