Could you build this?

Partial A minimal Python implementation of the utreexo accumulator is feasible from the spec and papers, so the core structure can be vibe-coded. Correctness against Bitcoin-specific behavior and test vectors still requires cryptographic and protocol expertise.

What it would actually take: The core is a Merkle forest with add and delete operations and inclusion proofs, specified in the utreexo papers and Bitcoin Core's implementation. A trustworthy version needs test vectors from Bitcoin Core and careful review of the proof logic. Someone with cryptography or Bitcoin protocol background should validate it.
