Save to My finds to follow releases and star growth. Saved in this browser.

About the project

A toolchain for userland code execution on Nintendo Switch via an XSS in the Civilization 7 chat, using a Raspberry Pi Pico as a USB HID keyboard and a persistent savedata trigger.

Useful for
  • Flash a Pico with the loader firmware and inject the chat-XSS payload into the Switch.
  • Build a boot-persistent installer from a custom JavaScript payload via installer-creator.
  • Send JavaScript payloads to a running Remote JS Loader on port 9026 with send_js.py.

5.1 Early signal Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of November 1, 2026, 22:14 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

02040November 1, 2026November 1, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-01 (UTC), 20:41–22:04: 207 → 242 stars (+35). This is the change over that interval.
  • The repository is 0 days old and already has 242 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Top new repositories this week: #150.
  • About 159 forks a day — people are taking the code.
  • Recent forks include notable developers: @soniciso1 (252 followers).

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
