Partial The UI and client shell are vibe-codeable, but wire-compatibility with mosh's crypto and state-synchronization protocol, plus robust roaming networking, requires careful protocol engineering.
What it would actually take: Study the mosh protocol (SSP state synchronization over UDP, AES-OCB encryption, and the bootstrap over SSH) and the reference C++ implementation. Use Rust crates for crypto and networking, plus a terminal emulator library such as vte for scrollback and state. The hard parts are exact wire compatibility with mosh-server, correct behavior under packet loss and IP roaming, and a native Windows client, which need systems and protocol expertise.
