What ComfyEngine is

ComfyEngine is a free, open-source toolkit for monitoring, patching, and scripting a running process on Linux. The project presents it as a Linux-first, Qt-based alternative to Cheat Engine. Its scanner can search for exact values, unknown values, changes, or ranges, with optional alignment, unreadable-page skipping, and scan undo. A watchlist supports pointer toggles, freezing and auto-enforcing values, drift coloring, saved watch tables, and snapshot comparisons. Additional tools include pointer graph visualization, a hex and memory viewer, inline patching, instruction context, Auto Assembler templates, and generated patch and restore scripts. The workspace has movable docks, notes, a script editor, a navigator sidebar, and layouts saved with QSettings. The repository lists the AGPL-3.0 license and provides an AUR development package command and source-build instructions. Building requires Qt 6 Widgets, Capstone, CMake 3.16 or later, a C++17 compiler, and Ninja or Make. The README does not list other supported platforms or third-party service integrations. The maintainer welcomes issues and pull requests on the repository.
