Partial The Ctrl-drag radial menu and desktop shell integration are buildable, but supporting 244 formats locally, including CAD, Office, and video, requires integrating many specialized converter engines.
What it would actually take: Build an Electron or Tauri shell with a radial overlay and OS drag hooks, then route conversions to bundled engines such as ImageMagick, FFmpeg, Pandoc, LibreOffice, and Calibre. The hard part is the long tail: CAD and font formats, fidelity across converters, and packaging and licensing those tools. That needs systems and format-specific expertise.
