Could you build this?

No Implementing a full Scheme interpreter/compiler with complete first-class continuations (call/cc) and tail-call optimization in JavaScript requires deep theoretical and practical programming language design expertise.

What it would actually take: A proper implementation requires architecting a trampoline or continuation-passing style (CPS) runtime transform, an abstract syntax tree evaluator/bytecode VM, and low-level stack/generator state manipulation in JS. Achieving correct call/cc semantics alongside JavaScript's native call stack and garbage collector requires deep expertise in compiler theory and functional runtime systems. The stack would typically be written in TypeScript/JavaScript implementing an R5RS/R7RS Scheme evaluation model.
