Could you build this?
Partial Building a basic MCP server is easy, but creating a secure, zero-config reverse tunnel that relays remote shell execution through NATs with OAuth and multi-device hub features requires robust networking infra.
What it would actually take: The product requires an agent daemon running on client machines that establishes persistent outbound WebSocket/gRPC tunnels to an edge relay cluster. The backend handles OAuth 2.1 authentication, rate limiting, and secure bi-directional message routing adhering to the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The hardest parts are zero-trust network tunneling across NATs/firewalls without user port forwarding, low-latency streaming of command outputs, and strict sandboxing/privilege boundaries.
