Could you build this?
No Building an OS-level AI sidebar that can visually inspect active third-party Mac apps and take autonomous UI actions directly in their windows requires advanced computer vision, accessibility API exploitation, and OS permission management.
What it would actually take: This requires a native macOS application leveraging Swift, CGWindowList / ScreenCaptureKit, and the macOS Accessibility API (AXUIElement) to dynamically inspect DOM/UI hierarchies of foreign windows and inject native input events (mouse clicks, keystrokes). It must coordinate real-time screen parsing (via multimodal vision models or OCR bounding boxes) with low-latency agentic planning, while adhering to strict macOS sandbox and privacy entitlements (Screen Recording and Accessibility permissions).

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a agent / copilot tool for Agriculture yet.
