Could you build this?
No Developing low-level macOS system utilities with custom notch overlay windows, CoreAudio tap/routing per application, system-level window management, and strict sub-0.03% CPU efficiency requires deep native macOS/Swift/C API mastery.
What it would actually take: The architecture requires Swift/Objective-C interfacing with undocumented or private macOS CoreAudio APIs (AudioServerPlugIn or Audio Queue Services) for per-process audio capture and DSP equalization. It demands deep knowledge of AppKit, CoreGraphics event taps for global shortcuts and window placement, ScreenCaptureKit for screen OCR, and extreme profiling in Instruments to maintain negligible idle CPU usage without sandbox restrictions.
