Could you build this?
No An on-device iOS IPA signer requires manipulating Mach-O binary structures, cryptographically signing code with CMS/PKCS#7, and handling provisioning profiles and entitlements within iOS sandboxing limits.
What it would actually take: Requires Swift or Objective-C targeting iOS with low-level parsing of Mach-O headers, dynamic library injection (insert_dylib), and implementing codesigning logic directly in Swift using Security.framework or custom OpenSSL bindings. Deep understanding of Apple's Code Directory hashes, entitlements, mobiledevice provisioning, and iOS security boundaries is essential.
