Could you build this?

No A camera mod for a specific Pixel phone depends on Android camera HAL access, Google's proprietary HDR+ and processing pipeline, and hardware-specific ISP and GPU tuning that vibe coding cannot supply.

What it would actually take: This means reverse-engineering the Pixel 8 Pro's camera stack: decompiling the stock GCam APK, porting the camera2/HAL vendor tags, and tuning HDR+, portrait depth, and telephoto (5x) processing per sensor. Real work needs Android internals, ISP and computational photography expertise, and a physical device for on-hardware testing and calibration. Software-only prompting will not get there.
