Welcome to my project! (Alpha)

A Command Line Interface (CLI) utility designed to automatically reject incoming Steam friend requests.

Overview

This tool operates as a standalone executable and requires no installation. It is designed for users who wish to maintain a strict privacy policy on their Steam profiles by automating the rejection process.

Current Version: Alpha 1.0

Installation & Requirements

• Operating System: Windows 10 / 11.
• No Python Installation Required: The application is compiled as a standalone .exe file.
• Dependencies: Ensure config.txt is always located in the same directory as the executable.

How to Use

1. Download and Extract Download the latest release zip file and extract the contents to a folder of your choice.

2. Configuration Open the config.txt file using any text editor (Notepad, VS Code, etc.).

3. Enter Credentials

   • Replace USERNAME_HERE with your Steam login username.
   • Replace PASSWORD_HERE with your Steam login password.

4. Enter Security Secrets (2FA)

   • Replace SHARED_SECRET_HERE with your Steam Shared Secret.
   • Replace IDENTITY_SECRET_HERE with your Steam Identity Secret.
   • Note: These are required to generate mobile authentication codes automatically.

5. Launch Run the ARSI.exe file. The terminal window will open and display the connection status.

Retrieving Steam Secrets

If you do not know your Shared or Identity secrets, you must extract them from your mobile authenticator device or desktop authenticator application.

Roadmap & Future Improvements

The current release (Alpha) is focused on core functionality and stability. The following features are planned for upcoming updates to enhance usability and filtering capabilities:

• Integrated Configuration Manager: Eliminate the need for manual config.txt editing. Future versions will include an onboard setup wizard (CLI or GUI) allowing users to securely input and store credentials directly within the application.

• Enhanced User Interface: Transition from the raw console output to a more robust interface. This includes a modernized Command Line Interface (CLI) dashboard or a lightweight Graphical User Interface (GUI) for real-time status monitoring and easier interaction.

• Geo-Location Filtering (Region Blocking): Implementation of advanced filtering logic to automatically reject friend requests based on the user's country of origin or region. This will allow for stricter control over incoming interactions.
