Could you build this?

No It requires reverse-engineering proprietary Apple wireless pairing protocols (Find My / AirTag / accessories) and bypassing platform cryptographic restrictions.

What it would actually take: Building this requires reverse-engineering Apple's proprietary pairing protocols, Keychain items, and Bluetooth Low Energy daemon (sharingd / identityservicesd) interactions on macOS and iOS. The stack involves Swift/Objective-C, private Apple frameworks (CoreUtils, Sharing), and protocol analyzers like Wireshark or USB packet capture tools. The hard challenge is extracting cryptographic pairing keys and crafting valid signatures to bypass Apple's security validations without official MFi authorization.
