Could you build this?

No Building a Vulkan layer that intercepts and re-themes precompiled GPUI rendering requires low-level graphics driver, GPU pipeline, and reverse-engineering expertise that vibe coding cannot substitute for.

What it would actually take: This needs a Vulkan implicit layer (C/C++) that hooks swapchain and draw calls, plus analysis of how GPUI emits and batches its GPU work to find where to intercept colors and styling. It takes engineers experienced in graphics APIs, GPU debugging, and cross-platform loader behavior, and iterative testing against real binaries.
