31Benzi/38.00-redirect ? reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a small C++ project that acts like a redirect tool for v38.00 and shows that it works with a simple proof of concept. I want it to be able to start up cleanly, handle the basic redirect flow, and make it obvious when the redirect is happening successfully.

Keep it simple and practical, more like a working demo than a huge app. If you need to look up current docs or examples online to make sure the implementation is realistic, go ahead. Please include clear startup output, basic error handling, and anything needed so I can run it and see that the redirect is working without having to guess what is happening.

If there are a couple of small parts that make this easier to understand, like a separate helper or finder component, that’s fine. I mainly want something that feels like a working v38.00 redirect proof, not just empty scaffolding.
