Could you build this?
No Building a comprehensive macOS utility suite requires low-level system APIs (CoreGraphics, Accessibility APIs, CoreAudio driver hooks, kernel/virtual display APIs, and system-level disk monitoring) that cannot be generated reliably via high-level vibe coding.
What it would actually take: Requires native Swift/Objective-C development interfacing deeply with macOS internals. Key technical hurdles include custom CoreAudio HAL drivers for per-app audio boosting, macOS Accessibility and Quartz event taps for global hotkeys/window snapping, and Virtual Display / IOKit APIs for display controls. Extensive knowledge of Apple sandboxing, entitlements, and hardening is necessary.
