Unfortunately, macOS being a Unix derivative does not have a really great way to tell if someone else is messing with a file. You want to run LSOF on every file. It will take a year and a day, and the kernel will get angry at you. And even that is not going to tell you anything because there's a million race conditions. You only have advisory locking.
