Could you build this?

No Ninja Ripper requires deep reverse-engineering of DirectX/Direct3D graphics pipelines, API hooking (DLL injection), and extracting vertex/texture data directly from GPU memory.

What it would actually take: Ninja Ripper is built using low-level C++ and assembly to perform DLL injection and hook graphics runtime functions (DirectX 9/11/12, Vulkan). The core capability relies on intercepting draw calls, reconstructing 3D mesh geometry and UV maps from compiled vertex buffers, and dumping texture shaders on the fly. This requires extensive knowledge of low-level graphics driver architectures, anti-cheat evasion, and binary disassembly.

Nobody's really built a dev tools tool for Sales yet.

{# Ad rails are position:fixed (see app.css's .sponsor-rail), so moving them after
in source order is purely cosmetic for the DOM -- visually they stay pinned left/right exactly as before. Put here so a linear text reader (an automated site-verification crawler, a screen reader, a search engine) hits the real page content first instead of a wall of repeated "Open slot" ad-placeholder filler before ever reaching a sentence about what Nicheloom is. #}
