Could you build this?
Partial Screen recording in a Chrome extension is standard, but client-side video processing with automated cursor-click zoom tracking, spring physics, and WebCodecs-based real-time H.264 rendering in-browser is highly complex.
What it would actually take: The extension must capture screen streams via `chrome.desktopCapture`, simultaneously log cursor telemetry (click events, coordinates) via content scripts, and composite the stream using HTML5 Canvas or WebGL shaders. Video encoding requires direct use of the WebCodecs API (`VideoEncoder`, `AudioEncoder`) and MP4 muxing in WebAssembly to prevent memory exhaustion and frame dropping.
