Could you build this?

Partial The installer and launcher wrapper can be vibe-coded via shell scripts or Python, but debugging Wine/Proton graphics translation layers and OpenXR/SteamVR runtime compatibility on Linux requires deep Linux gaming expertise.

What it would actually take: Architecture consists of a Bash/Python/Electron GUI managing Proton prefixes, winetricks/protontricks DLL overrides, and OpenXR API layer redirection. The hard part is diagnosing and patching WINE DXGI/Vulkan surface presentation quirks and proprietary VR driver bridging (OpenXR-to-Proton/SteamVR-Linux) when running Windows VR mods under Wine.
