Partial A protobuf wire-format decoder is standard, but a useful reverse-engineering tool must infer schemas from unknown binaries, which is heuristic and research-heavy.
What it would actually take: The UI and wire-format parsing can be vibe-coded, but inferring message types, field semantics, and nested structures from opaque traffic requires heuristics and probably some statistical analysis. Building it well takes experience in binary protocol analysis and access to varied real-world captures for testing.
