Could you build this?

Partial A browser extension snippet expander is trivial to vibe-code, but a system-wide desktop text expander that works natively across all OS apps requires native OS accessibility and keyboard hook APIs.

What it would actually take: To work universally across all desktop applications (not just the browser), the tool needs native OS hooks (e.g., Windows low-level keyboard hooks via Win32 API, macOS CGEventTap with Accessibility permissions). These APIs must handle arbitrary text inputs, IME composition events, clipboard manipulation, and active window context reliably without introducing input lag or getting blocked as keyloggers by antivirus/OS security sandboxes.
