User builds custom AI-powered keypad for automating digital tasks

A Reddit user developed a custom physical keypad to automate repetitive digital tasks, initially creating a script with Claude to sort their downloads folder. This workflow evolved into a broader system where the user prompts an AI to generate scripts or macros for various multi-step processes, which are then assigned to keys on the keypad. One example includes a workflow for exporting 3D models from FreeCAD, preparing them for printing, and sending them to the printer, all initiated by a single key press. AI
