# GameGent: reconstructing GameSir Tarantula Pro HID configuration

> GameGent is a Linux client for configuring GameSir Tarantula Pro controllers through a reconstructed USB HID exchange. Its protocol notes derive packet fields from the vendor Electron app and a Ghidra-decompiled DLL; the CLI reads state and mappings and sets lighting, sticks, motion controls, remaps and rumble.
