Partial The SSH client, tabs, SFTP, keychain, and vault UI are codeable, but the terminal emulator, ConPTY integration, and GPU glyph rendering demand systems and graphics expertise that vibe coding alone won't supply.
What it would actually take: A real version needs a VT/xterm-compatible terminal emulator (parser, screen state, reflow, input encoding), Windows pseudo-terminal support via ConPTY, and a GPU text renderer with glyph caching, ligatures, and color emoji fallback. Go with an SSH library like x/crypto/ssh, plus SFTP and an encrypted vault, is standard. The emulator and renderer are the hard parts and need experienced systems and graphics engineers, with substantial testing against real terminal behavior.
