The full story
The poster has three monitors and kept typing into the wrong one. They asked Claude (Opus 5.5) for a Mac utility that sits in the system tray and uses the camera to set focus to the monitor they look at.
It was built from a single prompt, signed with their Apple developer certificate and set to launch at login. The poster says it has not missed so far.
