Could you build this?

Partial Building a WinUI tray application is very approachable with AI assistance, but reverse-engineering Google's proprietary Bluetooth RFCOMM/GATT protocol for Pixel Buds Pro 2 requires hardware protocol sniffing.

What it would actually take: The application stack consists of C#/.NET with WinUI 3 / Windows App SDK running in the system tray. The difficult component is reverse engineering and implementing Google's proprietary Fast Pair / Bluetooth RFCOMM handshake and ANC/transparency state machine commands. A developer needs packet captures (via Wireshark/Btsnoop on Android) and low-level Windows Bluetooth Win32/UWP API expertise to maintain reliable device communication.
