The Home Assistant Companion App on macOS exposes a number of sensors such as battery level, camera state, active app, etc. I haven't used it recently since the machine where it would be most useful for me is provided by my employer and I'm not allowed to install unapproved 3rd-party apps 😞 https://companion.home-assistant.io/docs/core/#feature-comparison
I don't think it currently provides remote control capabilities though.
