Could you build this?
Partial The developer tooling and local runtime are codeable, but compiling an LLM's decision logic into reliable local code is a novel technique that vibe coding alone won't deliver.
What it would actually take: A basic version could log LLM decisions and replay them through a local rules engine or small model. A real product needs a robust method for extracting generalizable decision logic and verifying it against the LLM, which is a research-level problem. It requires ML engineering expertise in distillation, evaluation, and program synthesis.
