I did something similar using Raspberry Pi 2040 - it pretends to be a USB keyboard, opens browser using 0xf0 key, types in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ and press play after connecting to the PC.
I'm guessing this was killed because of the rick roll (heads up in case you click the youtube link before reading the repo name, the youtube link above is a rickroll) but I vouched for it because the linked github repo is genuinely very interesting. Thanks for sharing!
I vaguely remember playing with some physical keylogger (ps/2?) back in early 2000s that had similar feature - to configure it you enter some magic key sequence then it „typed” the menu and you execute some configuration commands via typing on a keyboard.
That's very cool and clever.
