    koboctl is a Go CLI tool that provisions and hardens Kobo e-readers over USB, automating the installation of KOReader, NickelMenu, KFMon, and Plato while locking down telemetry, disabling unnecessary services, and enforcing family-safe DNS turning a stock Kobo into a secure, vendor-free reading device in a single command.

    It's not an OS
