Could you build this?

Partial Porting a Telegram client library is a protocol and cryptography implementation task; an AI assistant can draft the code, but correctness of the MTProto handshake, encryption, and sessions requires careful verification against the reference.

What it would actually take: The stack is Python with asyncio, plus a crypto library for AES-IGE, SHA, and RSA, implementing the MTProto framing, key exchange, and message serialization from the existing C++ tgnet source and the TL schema. The hard part is bit-exact correctness of the auth key and encryption flow, plus keeping up with protocol changes. It requires someone who can read the C++ reference and test interoperability against live servers.
