Are keyloggers for security allowed on Roblox?

Just to get it out of the way:

The keylogger is not for malicious use, it is for security use.

What is it intended for?

To store the user’s keypresses and look for patterns that might resamble keybinds for exploits. I intend it to serve as extra evidence for proving if someone is, or not, an exploiter.

How it should work:

A string of the keypressed recorded would be bitmasked and then stored. Something looking like this:

'WWSSDDDSSAAASSWWDSDD'

Of course it is not just W, S, D and A keys. And probably those keys shouldn’t be stored as it would make the data full of just movement key presses.

Keypresses during chat also wouldn’t be recorded

Then any common pattern would be detected by a server script, if possitive, then the save is flagged, if negative, the save is cleared.

How would a server script detect the inputs?

And this is just another hacky method that has no definitive usage that can be easily destroyed by exploiters.

Also what patterns would be considered exploits? Inputs outside of the client (on the injector) don’t get recorded either

What’s the problem with having the server contain the key? I mean the client can’t magically access the server right?
