Could you build this?
Partial While basic screenshot tools are simple, building native macOS screen recording with auto-zoom on click, cursor tracking, timeline editing, and smooth video rendering requires deep Cocoa/AVFoundation expertise.
What it would actually take: A production version requires a native Swift/macOS application interfacing with ScreenCaptureKit, Accessibility APIs (for global click tracking), and AVFoundation/Metal for compositing and rendering. The hard part is smooth, non-disorienting camera interpolation around click events and maintaining high-framerate hardware-accelerated video export without stutter. It demands a skilled macOS system and graphics programmer rather than standard web-focused vibe coding.

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