Could you build this?

Partial The Python/CLI/MCP wrapper is vibe-codeable, but the core value is porting published medical imaging models to MLX and validating them clinically, which needs ML research and medical imaging expertise.

What it would actually take: You would reimplement model architectures in MLX, convert pretrained weights, and build a Python package with a CLI and MCP server. The hard parts are numerical parity with the reference implementations, handling DICOM and medical image preprocessing correctly, and validating outputs with clinical data, which requires domain researchers.
