Could you build this?
Partial Connecting an LLM to run network troubleshooting tools is straightforward, but reverse-engineering and embedding an agent inside Cisco Packet Tracer's closed IPC/scripting environment requires specialized network automation and IPC hooking.
What it would actually take: Requires bridging Cisco Packet Tracer's proprietary IPC/PT-API (Qt Script / IPC socket communication) with a local Python/Rust agent runtime. The hard part is interfacing with Packet Tracer's undocumented or restricted script engine to introspect topology and push CLI commands programmatically, coupled with deterministic network tool validation.
