Could you build this?
Partial A multi-protocol remote session client can be assembled from existing libraries for SSH, RDP, VNC, and SFTP, and the UI is standard. Per-session WireGuard tunnels and serial or Proxmox integration add networking and driver-level complexity that vibe coding alone won't fully handle.
What it would actually take: The base is a tabbed client wrapping libraries such as libssh, FreeRDP, and noVNC-style VNC clients, with a Qt or Electron UI. The hard part is managing per-session WireGuard tunnels safely, which needs OS network-stack and privilege handling on each platform. Serial support requires device-level access, and this is best done by someone with networking and systems experience.
