Could you build this?

Partial While wrapping the macOS Accessibility API is manageable, creating and running an accurate, low-latency on-device vision/form-filling model requires specialized model optimization and fine-tuning.

What it would actually take: A functional version requires Swift or Objective-C to interface with macOS AXUIElement APIs for inspection and synthetic event delivery. The hard part is fine-tuning and quantizing a specialized vision-language/computer-use model (like CUA-S1) to run locally on Apple Silicon via MLX or llama.cpp with low enough latency and high spatial grounding accuracy to reliably fill arbitrary form fields.
