Could you build this?
No Building a deterministic static analysis tool that performs cross-language interprocedural data-flow and taint analysis requires specialized compiler and program analysis engineering. Vibe coding cannot generate robust AST parsers, control-flow graph generators, and taint-tracking rule engines across five disparate languages.
What it would actually take: The system requires parsing code into semantic intermediate representations (IR) or language-specific ASTs, generating control-flow and call graphs, and propagating taint states from untrusted sources to sinks. It requires deep formal methods, compiler construction expertise, and an extensive security rule knowledge corpus maintained by specialized application security researchers.
