## What it is
A small desktop application that forces Steam Remote Play Together sessions for any game in your Steam library, including non-Steam games. It communicates with the running Steam client via internal IPC APIs to generate invites and guest links.

## Use cases
- play local co-op games online with friends via Steam Remote Play
- enable remote play for games that don't officially support it
- share a remote play guest link for non-steam games
- invite Steam friends to a remote play session directly
- force remote play together on a game running through Steam

## When to choose
- you want to Remote Play a game that lacks official Remote Play Together support
- you need guest invite links for friends without Steam copies of a game
- you want a lightweight GUI tool on Windows or Linux

## When to avoid
- you need a tool guaranteed to work with the latest Steam client (currently broken by Steam updates)
- you want an officially supported solution rather than reliance on unstable internal Steam APIs
- you need remote play outside the Steam ecosystem
