Could you build this?
No A working Rust compiler requires a full, correct implementation of Rust's grammar, type inference, trait resolution, and borrow checker, which vibe coding cannot reliably produce without deep compiler expertise.
What it would actually take: It would need a parser and macro expander, a type checker with trait solving, a borrow checker or equivalent (MIR-level analysis), and a backend, likely LLVM bindings or a custom codegen in Go. Building it requires compiler engineers with PL theory background and a large test corpus validated against rustc.
