Research direction
The issue requests a way to rename or hide the project to avoid lifetime bans. The contributor should first understand the project's current codebase, particularly how it communicates with the Pokémon Go servers and any identifying markers. Potential approaches include renaming the project, using a proxy to mask traffic, or modifying the user agent. However, the exact requirements are not defined, so the contributor needs to propose a concrete solution after investigating the code.
