Could you build this?
Partial The OpenAI-compatible proxy, Ollama integration and presence-based scheduling are vibe-codeable as a skeleton. Reliable distributed inference across heterogeneous Macs, with failover and low latency, is a systems problem that vibe coding alone won't solve well.
What it would actually take: The front end is an API gateway and a scheduler that tracks Mac idle state and routes requests to available nodes. The hard parts are distributed model serving, handling network latency and node churn, and integrating with macOS power and user-activity signals safely. A robust version needs distributed-systems and macOS low-level expertise, plus thorough testing across many hardware configurations.
