Could you build this?
Partial Building a basic menu bar app is simple, but managing a low-level clipboard listener, accessibility-based sequential paste simulation, and custom screen capture overlays on macOS requires deep OS-level permission handling.
What it would actually take: The app requires a native Swift/macOS application interfacing with NSPasteboard, CGDisplayStream/ScreenCaptureKit for screenshots, and CGEvent injection for automatic sequential pasting into third-party windows. The challenge lies in managing macOS Accessibility and Screen Recording permission workflows, handling sandbox constraints, and accurately synthesizing keyboard events across varied target applications.
