## Description

Repeat is a cross-platform automation utility designed to record, replay, and script mouse and keyboard inputs. It functions as a macro scripting environment that allows users to capture raw system events and organize them into persistent sequences that remain available across application restarts.

The project distinguishes itself through its ability to orchestrate tasks across multiple networked machines. By utilizing a client-server model, it synchronizes automation scripts across a local fleet, enabling coordinated execution and consistent performance on connected devices.

Beyond basic input recording, the software supports complex workflow development by allowing users to define automation logic through external scripts and standard programming languages. These sequences can be triggered instantly using custom keyboard shortcuts or mouse gestures, facilitating the management of repetitive desktop tasks and system interactions.
