Could you build this?

Partial The chord, melody, and piano-roll UI is vibe-codeable, but a usable product must ship as a cross-DAW audio plugin (VST3/AU) and generate musically convincing output, which requires audio-plugin SDK expertise and real music-theory and generation work.

What it would actually take: Build the plugin in C++ with JUCE (or a similar framework) for VST3/AU/AAX, with a rule-based or small-model generator for chords, melody, and rhythm, plus a MIDI export layer. The hard parts are plugin host compatibility across DAWs, code signing and notarization, and generation quality that feels musical, which needs a music-savvy designer and tuning time.
