Partial A multi-pane terminal and file client with SSH, SFTP, and tunnels is achievable with AI help, but robust RDP and VNC support, serial, and native Qt packaging across Windows and Linux are substantial protocol and systems work.
What it would actually take: Build in Rust with Qt 6 bindings, using libssh2 or russh for SSH/SFTP, FreeRDP and a VNC library for remote desktops, and serialport for serial. The hard parts are mature, secure protocol handling and cross-platform native packaging. Systems-programming and security expertise are needed to make it reliable.
