Could you build this?

Partial The SwiftUI app and CLI are vibe-codeable, but a working VPN client depends on a macOS Network Extension, signing and notarization, and tunnel code that is hard to get right.

What it would actually take: The stack is SwiftUI for the UI, a NEPacketTunnelProvider Network Extension, and an existing WireGuard implementation such as wireguard-go or the WireGuard Apple framework, with a privileged helper for routing. The hard parts are Apple entitlements, notarization, and debugging routing and DNS, which need someone with macOS networking experience.
