Could you build this?
Partial The CLI/GUI wrapper is easy to write, but package unpacking, filesystem format conversions (.ffpfs), and decrypting/repacking proprietary PS5 console package binaries require reverse-engineered console formats.
What it would actually take: The application wraps lower-level unpacking tools (like ps5-ultrapack) using C#/.NET or Python to manipulate PlayStation 5 PFS/FPKG file structures and mount virtual filesystems. The hard part is implementing the binary parsing, decryption, and container reconstruction specifications discovered by the console jailbreak research community. It requires domain knowledge in file format reverse engineering, console file systems, and binary forensics.
