Could you build this?
Partial While the UI and event log visualizer are standard, accurately capturing diverse low-level macOS system events (thermal pressure, launch daemons, sleep/wake, exact app bundle diffs) requires native Swift/Objective-C code using private or restricted macOS system APIs and daemon architectures.
What it would actually take: A production version requires a native macOS menu bar app written in Swift utilizing low-level macOS APIs (IOKit for power/battery, Endpoint Security or FSEvents for file/folder changes, SystemConfiguration/CoreWLAN for networking, and launchd monitoring). The hard part is managing battery/CPU overhead while running continuous background telemetry without triggering intrusive macOS permission alerts or sandbox restrictions. An engineer experienced in low-level macOS internals and daemon architecture is required.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a observability & eval tool for Media & entertainment yet.
