Could you build this?

Partial While the terminal TUI is straightforward to code, unifying cloud provider billing, identity, provisioning APIs, and marketplace transactions across five different hyperscalers is non-trivial.

What it would actually take: The system requires a TUI (e.g., using Bubbletea or Ratatui) communicating with a centralized backend API. The backend must integrate deeply with 5 different cloud provider APIs (AWS, GCP, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, Linode) for programmatic VM lifecycle management, rate limits, and custom credential or multi-tenant billing aggregation. Hard parts include building robust asynchronous state reconciliation engines for cross-cloud instance states and managing secure multi-provider credential delegation.
