No The core value is a working Broadcom Wi-Fi driver for macOS Tahoe, which depends on kernel-extension internals, OpenCore configuration, and hardware-specific debugging that AI-assisted coding can't reliably produce.
What it would actually take: A real version needs kernel-level macOS expertise: writing or adapting kexts/DriverKit components for specific Broadcom chipsets, building and maintaining OpenCore config patches, and handling Apple's signing and notarization requirements. Testing needs many physical Macs with different Broadcom cards and macOS point releases. A wrapper installer is easy; the driver work is the hard part.
