Could you build this?

No Creating a unified cross-platform desktop/mobile terminal and remote desktop client (SSH, SFTP, RDP, VNC) integrated with system agents and an MCP server requires deep native systems networking and protocol implementation.

What it would actually take: This requires a native Swift/SwiftUI application for macOS and iOS integrating native C/C++ protocol libraries (libssh2, FreeRDP, LibVNCServer) and terminal emulation engines. The hard aspects involve handling terminal escape codes, secure keychain integrations (OpenSSH agent socket forwarding, 1Password integration), low-latency graphical display streaming for RDP/VNC, and building a local IPC MCP server within Apple's app sandbox.
