I‘ve recently discovered an App for macOS called AlDente, which allows you to limit battery charging in a way where it will stop at an upper threshold and start again at a lower threshold. It also has buttons to manually start or stop charging.

Would this be possible with a Framework? Preferably from within Windows?

I know that there are ways to set the static Charge Limit from the OS, but is there any interface provided for an application to tell the laptop to start or stop charging?

If need be, I‘d be open to enabling test signing and/or making my own app to send the commands, so all I‘d need would be an existing driver that allows such control over the battery.
