🖥️ HMAS API – SSH Login Prank Example

Turn a simple SSH login into a dramatic hacker-style experience using the HMAS API.

Perfect for surprising your teammates or adding flavor to a dev server.

⚠️ Disclaimer

This is meant for humor and harmless fun.

Do NOT use this in production environments or to deceive people maliciously.

Be funny, not felonious.

🧠 What You Need

• A Unix-based server (Linux/macOS)

• SSH access

• cURL installed

• .bashrc or .bash_profile edit access

🚀 The Prank Setup

Add the following lines to your .bashrc or .bash_profile on the remote server:

# HMAS SSH Prank Welcome Message

API_KEY="testkey123"

MSG="ghost"

FORMAT="txt"

MESSAGE=$(curl -s "https://carlostkd.ch/hmas/api.php?msg=$MSG&format=$FORMAT&apikey=$API_KEY")

echo ""

echo "🧠 HMAS TERMINAL ACTIVATED"

echo "$MESSAGE"

echo "🔓 Session monitored. Please proceed with caution."

echo ""

After saving, run:

source ~/.bashrc  # or source ~/.bash_profile

🧪 What Happens

Next time anyone logs in via SSH, they’ll see something like:

🧠 HMAS TERMINAL ACTIVATED

☠️ WARNING: AI unit detected unauthorized entropy access. Protocol chaos initiated.

🔓 Session monitored. Please proceed with caution.

🎨 Customize It

• Change MSG to ai, debug, cyberpunk, fun, etc.

• Try different format= like json, html, or yaml

• Use mode=daily or category= for themed results

🛡️ Reverting the Prank

Just remove or comment out the prank lines from .bashrc or .bash_profile:

# HMAS Prank removed

💡 Bonus Tip

Combine this with ASCII art for maximum drama:

figlet -f cybermedium "ACCESS LOGGED"

Make every login memorable — and slightly terrifying.
