Partial The widget and dock UI is codeable in Swift, but the edge-docking, notch integration, and window-level behavior depend on AppKit and sometimes private macOS APIs that vibe coding handles unreliably.
What it would actually take: This would be a native macOS app in Swift/SwiftUI with AppKit for window and dock behavior, plus system APIs for stats, media, and calendar access. The hard parts are reliable window placement across displays and the notch, and reading agent session status from Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor. That needs macOS platform expertise and ongoing maintenance as OS versions change.
