Could you build this?

Partial The desktop automation overlay and LLM orchestration are vibe-codeable, but handling low-level OS input hooks, multi-monitor coordinate mappings, and rock-solid fail-safe interrupts requires nuanced native Windows development.

What it would actually take: The stack involves Python/Node or Rust wrapping the Windows API (User32.dll for global keyboard hooks via SetWindowsHookEx, SendInput for mouse/keyboard simulation, and Desktop Duplication API or UI Automation for screen capture/inspection). The difficult aspect is creating a robust, low-latency UI overlay that accurately captures clicks, handles DPI scaling across multi-monitor setups, and guarantees instantaneous ESC interruption even when the foreground window is unresponsive. Native Windows systems programming and robust exception handling are required.
