Could you build this?
Partial The multi-tab UI, connection library, and MCP integration are vibe-codeable. Building working VNC, RDP, and SSH protocol clients natively across three operating systems is harder and depends on protocol libraries.
What it would actually take: A real version would wrap established libraries such as FreeRDP, libvncclient, and libssh inside a native cross-platform shell (for example, Tauri, Electron, or Qt) and add an MCP server exposing session control. The hard parts are reliable, low-latency frame rendering and input handling for each protocol, plus secure credential storage. That requires experience with remote-desktop protocols and native app development.
