Description
https://github.com/akoerner/kprox/blob/master/img/combat_tit... https://github.com/akoerner/kprox/raw/master/img/combat_loss...KProx is a HID (mouse + keyboard) automation firmware targeted at the M5Stack Cardputer, Cardputer Adv, and the M5Stack Atom S3. It features a DSL similar to DuckScript, an API with a web interface, and KeePass KDBX 3.1 database support for an onboard credential store via the nvme or SD card. Additionally, it includes a plethora of HID "apps," such as psCombatProx: kill processes by fighting tanks... and your computer.Firmware can be installed with the M5Burner by searching "KProx"

Could you build this?
No This project involves embedded C/C++ firmware, hardware peripheral interaction (USB HID emulation on ESP32 devices like M5Stack), and custom DSL interpreters running on constrained microcontrollers.
What it would actually take: Building this requires embedded C++ (ESP-IDF or Arduino core for ESP32-S3), custom USB HID gadget drivers, display/input drivers for M5Stack hardware, and a memory-safe DSL parser/interpreter. The hardest parts are handling USB descriptor negotiation, low-latency keystroke/mouse timing, and managing limited SRAM. This requires embedded systems engineering and hardware-level debugging tools.
