Could you build this?

No Android binary reverse engineering, dynamic hooking (Xposed), DEX bytecode manipulation, and fuzzy shape-based AST matching through DexKit require deep low-level security research and compiler knowledge.

What it would actually take: Requires deep systems expertise in Dalvik/ART runtime internals, Smali bytecode, and compiler intermediate representations. The architecture relies on DexKit (native C++ scanning library), dynamic instrumentation via LSPosed/Xposed, and graph-matching algorithms to recognize control-flow and method signatures across obfuscators like ProGuard or DexGuard without relying on symbol names.
