Partial A Swift macOS app with a keyboard-driven UI and window controls is vibe-codeable, but smooth Mission Control integration may depend on undocumented or private macOS APIs and tuning.
What it would actually take: Use Swift and AppKit with the Accessibility API (AXUIElement) and CGEvent taps for window control and keyboard input. Matching Mission Control's smoothness may require private window-server calls or animation hooks, which need macOS internals knowledge and testing across OS versions. A developer comfortable with macOS system APIs could build a solid version.
