No Developing a macOS utility that wraps around the hardware notch and overlays multi-display system state requires specialized native Swift/AppKit development and private macOS APIs.
What it would actually take: Built with Swift and AppKit/CoreGraphics, requiring deep understanding of window server layers (`NSPanel`, `NSWindowSharingNone`), screen detection (`NSScreen`), and notch hardware geometries. It involves reverse-engineering system media notifications (NowPlaying framework), multi-screen coordinate mapping, and low-level global drag-and-drop event handlers.
