Could you build this?
Partial Accessing proprietary Apple Silicon hardware sensors (CPU/GPU die temperatures, fan controllers, power rails) requires interacting with undocumented SMC (System Management Controller) and IOKit APIs.
What it would actually take: A native macOS app (Swift/C++) querying IOKit, `IOReport`, and SMC keys specifically mapped to Apple Silicon thermal sensors. Because Apple provides no public API for per-core temperatures or SOC power channels on M-series chips, the developer must reverse-engineer private SMC keys or bundle open-source drivers/wrappers (like stats or smctool), requiring systems-level C/Darwin experience.
