Could you build this?
Partial The form-filling UI and offline app are vibe-codeable, but savefile compatibility with BIR's proprietary app requires reverse engineering the file format. Correct tax computations across 84 forms also need domain and regulatory accuracy that vibe coding won't supply.
What it would actually take: The core UI can be generated with a standard desktop stack such as Electron or Tauri with a React front end. The hard parts are reverse-engineering BIR's savefile format and validating every form's calculation and rule logic against official specifications. That takes a tax-domain expert plus someone who can analyze binary or XML formats, and results need testing against real BIR outputs.
