Partial A desktop MTP file-manager UI is vibe-codeable, but reliable USB/MTP communication with PS4 quirks and the PKG install path depend on reverse-engineered console protocols and a jailbreak environment that AI assistance alone won't supply.
What it would actually take: A real version would be a desktop app (e.g., Rust/C++ or Electron) on top of libmtp or a custom USB transport, plus a PS4-side installer client. The hard part is reverse-engineering the console's MTP behavior and PKG install protocol, which requires hardware, a jailbroken PS4 for testing, and low-level USB debugging experience.
