No Dumping a PS5 kernel requires a console exploit chain and low-level security research, which is specialized and legally sensitive rather than a standard app build.
What it would actually take: This needs a working kernel or firmware exploit on PS5 hardware, followed by code that runs in the exploited context to read kernel memory and write it to USB. Building it takes exploit developers with deep knowledge of FreeBSD-derived kernel internals, PS5 security mitigations, and the console's hardware. Vibe coding can produce the USB writer but not the exploit.
