Could you build this?

No A real warehouse robot depends on physical hardware and robotics expertise for sensor integration, real-world SLAM tuning, and safety, which software vibe coding cannot cover.

What it would actually take: Packages like slam_toolbox and Nav2 provide the ROS 2 software base, so the software is assembled rather than invented. Making it work in a warehouse requires a robot platform, LiDAR calibration, odometry and motor control, and extensive field testing. Safety certification for operating around people adds another requirement, so the build needs robotics engineers and hardware.
