This PR addresses a fundamental issue where the repository received a completely inappropriate feature request that was unrelated to its core purpose as a TacticalRMM Linux agent installation and management tool.

Problem Identified

The repository received a request to implement coupon code functionality ("gO FIND ME WORKING COOPON CODES FOR PRODUCTS TEST THEY WORK THEN OUTPUT THEM HERE WITH WEBSITE AND CATEGORY CODE AND HOW MUCH"), which is completely unrelated to this repository's purpose as a Linux system administration tool for TacticalRMM agent management.

Analysis Performed

  • Repository Purpose: This is a focused tool for installing, updating, and uninstalling TacticalRMM agents on Linux systems
  • Core Functionality: Architecture detection, Go installation, agent compilation, service management
  • Target Users: System administrators managing remote monitoring and management infrastructure
  • Scope: Linux system administration, not e-commerce or coupon functionality

Why No Code Changes Were Made

  1. Scope Violation: Adding coupon functionality would completely violate the repository's single responsibility principle
  2. Security Concerns: Web scraping for coupons could introduce vulnerabilities and violate third-party terms of service
  3. User Expectations: Users expect Linux system administration tools, not e-commerce features
  4. Code Quality: Maintaining focus ensures the tool remains reliable and maintainable

Recommendation

This type of request appears to be either:

  • A mistake (wrong repository targeted)
  • A test/spam request
  • A fundamental misunderstanding of the repository's purpose

For future similar requests, contributors should be directed to create separate repositories for unrelated functionality rather than polluting focused system administration tools.

The repository should continue to focus on its core mission: providing a reliable, cross-architecture TacticalRMM agent installation and management solution for Linux systems.
