Abstract
A method can include intercepting a command generated by a computer peripheral device; determining a function corresponding to the command; generating a lighting output schema configured to be output on one or more visual output elements on the computer peripheral device based on the determined function; identifying, based on the determined function, whether a second software component can accept the command; and in response to determining that the second software component can accept the command, sending the intercepted command to the second software component. The method can further include requesting confirmation data from the second software component that indicates whether the second software component can perform the determined function; receiving the confirmation data; and in response to the confirmation data indicating that the second software component cannot perform the determined function, preventing the intercepted command from being sent to the second software component at the intended destination.
