Could you build this?

Partial A basic open-source IaC and config tool can be vibe-coded, but a credible replacement for Terraform/Ansible needs robust state management, provider coverage, and drift handling.

What it would actually take: The core is a declarative plan/apply engine with state storage and locking, plus cloud provider and SSH/config modules. The hard parts are correct diffing, idempotency, and safe concurrent state handling across many providers. Building it well takes experienced infrastructure engineers, and provider coverage is a long-term effort.
