Could you build this?

Partial The Android UI and basic Xposed hook boilerplate are straightforward, but intercepting low-level Android storage APIs and MediaProvider hooks across various OEM ROMs requires specialized knowledge.

What it would actually take: Built with Java/Kotlin using the LSPosed / Xposed framework. The hard part is identifying the exact undocumented internal methods within Android's framework (such as File, StorageManager, or MediaStore) to hook without causing application crashes, boot loops, or SELinux violations across diverse Android versions.
