Could you build this?

Partial The CLI and local web GUI are simple to vibe-code, but providing breach intelligence without API keys requires acquiring and indexing massive terabyte-scale breach data dumps or torrents.

What it would actually take: The front-end and CLI can be built in Python/FastAPI or Node.js. However, the core challenge is ingesting, deduplicating, and indexing hundreds of gigabytes or terabytes of plaintext credential dumps locally, requiring optimized database engines (e.g., ClickHouse, LMDB, or SQLite with bloom filters) and access to dark-web / underground leak archives.
