Could you build this?
Partial The hotkey UI and network transport are buildable, but reliably capturing and injecting keyboard and mouse input across macOS and Windows, plus DDC/CI monitor switching, requires OS-level APIs and permission handling that vibe coding alone handles poorly.
What it would actually take: The stack is native code: Swift/Objective-C with CGEvent taps and accessibility permissions on macOS, and C++/C# with low-level hooks and Raw Input on Windows. Secure local networking with clipboard sync and audio routing adds more platform-specific work. The hard parts are input latency, OS permission and signing requirements, and DDC/CI quirks across monitor models, so a developer comfortable with OS internals is needed.
