Attack Shark Linux

Linux desktop configurator for the Attack Shark X6 gaming mouse, built with Go + Wails v3 (backend) and React + Vite (frontend).

Status: Beta. There is no installer yet — build from source (see Building). Not affiliated with or endorsed by Attack Shark.

Features

• Multi-device inventory over kernel-backed hidraw, with selection by serial.
• Live status monitoring — battery heartbeats and physical DPI button changes are pushed to the UI as they arrive from the dongle.
• DPI configuration — up to 8 stages, 50–26000 in 50-unit steps, with per-stage colors and an active-stage circle UI.
• Apply on demand — writes the 56-byte configuration report over hidraw (SET_REPORT), with debounced auto-sync after one second of inactivity.
• Per-device persistence — versioned device profiles survive restarts, with factory-defaults restore.
• Polling-rate configuration — select 125, 250, 500, or 1000 Hz; the acknowledged choice persists per serial-bearing device, while session-only devices retain it only for the current session.
• Serialless X6 sessions — identifies and configures dongles without a usable serial.

Prerequisites

• Linux with the X6 dongle connected (VID:PID 1d57:fa60).
• The packaged udev policy installed — see docs/linux-usb-prerequisites.md.

Do not run the app as root and do not change the udev rules to world-writable mode 0666. The policy grants the active seat user access via TAG+="uaccess" with device mode 0660.

Building

Requirements: Go 1.25+, Node.js (for the frontend).

# Backend + embedded frontend
task build                # taskfile at cmd/x6configurator

# Or manually:
go build ./...
(cd frontend && npm ci && npm run build)

Testing

go test ./...        # backend unit tests (hidraw tests use a fake, no device needed)
go vet ./...         # static analysis
(cd frontend && npm test)   # frontend unit tests (vitest)

Documentation

Security

• Reads are passive; writes happen on demand only when you apply a change.
• Never commit the official Windows application or any proprietary material — it is local research reference only (see .gitignore).
• To report a vulnerability, follow SECURITY.md — do not open a public issue.
