Could you build this?
Partial Building a cross-platform network diagnostic CLI with real-time TUI, raw ICMP socket management across OSes, and fine-grained packet timing requires low-level systems programming that vibe-coding struggles to get right across operating systems.
What it would actually take: Written in Rust or Go utilizing raw socket capabilities (`pnet` or `golang.org/x/net/icmp`) alongside a terminal UI framework like `ratatui` or `bubbletea`. The primary difficulty lies in cross-platform privilege handling (raw socket permissions on Linux vs Windows vs macOS), ICMP parsing edge cases, and high-resolution timing jitter measurement across varied networking stacks.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a observability & eval tool for Media & entertainment yet.
