Partial The UI and command mapping are vibe-codeable, but reliable voice control of arbitrary Mac apps requires macOS accessibility and automation work plus a good on-device speech model.
What it would actually take: A real version would be a native Swift/SwiftUI macOS app that uses Accessibility APIs and AppleScript/AppleEvents to drive apps, with an on-device speech model such as Whisper or Apple's Speech framework for dictation. The hard parts are robust UI element targeting across many apps, safe confirmation before sends, and tuning local recognition latency and accuracy. This requires macOS systems expertise and some speech-engineering experience.
