pyautogui's Quartz-based keystroke path often fails on newer macOS
because the Python CLI binary doesn't auto-surface in System Settings
> Accessibility. User reported the daemon detected taps fine but
keystrokes never landed in any window.
Switch to AppleScript / System Events on macOS. Permission attaches
to whatever terminal/app launched the Python process (Terminal.app,
iTerm, etc.) — a familiar named app the user can grant Accessibility
to in one click. Combined keystroke + Return in a single osascript
call to keep latency ~100ms per tap.
Fall back to pyautogui if osascript fails (handles edge cases) and
on non-macOS platforms.
