Partial While basic macOS utilities can be scaffolded with AI, custom system-level window management, low-level global hotkey interceptors, and deep Spotlight/file-system indexing require non-trivial native Swift/AppKit expertise.
What it would actually take: Requires native Swift/macOS development utilizing Accessibility APIs, CGWindow APIs, and CoreServices/MetadataQuery for local drive indexing. Handling seamless, flicker-free window switching and keyboard intercept hooks requires managing low-level OS permissions and event tap quirks that LLMs frequently hallucinate or struggle to debug.
