The clients are already built to conform to the execution API spec and beacon API spec, so building tools to interact with them is already client-agnostic to a great degree. If I add a custom ETH mainnet endpoint to Metamask, it doesn't care what client is providing the endpoint - only that it conforms to the spec.

Our light client API endpoints have now been aligned to the spec discussed at Devconnect in Amsterdam. To see the updated endpoints, refer to the discussion here: https://github.com/ethereum/beacon-APIs/pull/181

prerequisite for this is that you have a CL client running, which costs money if you intend to run this on AWS or something, probably explaining why this isn't already a thing. Perhaps you could do this as a feature of https://github.com/gobitfly/eth2-beaconchain-explorer, although I don't know what data there is to work with in there
