Could you build this?

No It depends on reverse-engineering and modifying PS5 firmware update behavior, which needs deep security and console-exploitation expertise that vibe coding cannot supply.

What it would actually take: A real version needs a working understanding of the console's update mechanism and the jailbreak payload, which is specialized security research on closed hardware. The work is not a UI problem, so the limiting factor is expertise and hardware access rather than code generation.
