Description
One shortcut, pressed a few seconds before you share your screen. The apps you pick are hidden, notification banners are covered, desktop icons cleared. Try to open a hidden app and it won't open at all — you get a cover and a 3-minute snooze instead. Press again and everything comes back exactly as it was. What's different: no Accessibility permission, and no claim to detect screen sharing — macOS has no API for that, so you press the shortcut yourself. Free and open source.

Could you build this?
Yes It is an open-source macOS menu bar app written in Swift that toggles system hotkeys, manipulates running application window visibility via AppKit/CoreGraphics APIs, and hides desktop icons via standard defaults commands.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a workflow automation tool for Real estate yet.
