Are simple pixelbots safe?

I know a bit of programming and have found very simple toturials on youtube for how to make a pixel bot in python. It would simply:

1. Retrieve color at x,y location when I press my E button.
2. Output a keystroke corresponding to the E press, depending on color.

Then I will make a weakaura that displays the color at x,y of what ability to use next, eg. red = Mortal strike, blue = overpower ect.

Do you think warden will flag such a program?

I'm new to this :P

Cheating is never safe. It all depends on how much effort Blizz will put into getting you.

I may be overthinking things here, but using software developed in public tutorials can be even easier to detect. Perhaps a "safer" alternative is to create something more customized for yourself and not make it public, which will depend on more advanced knowledge of computer science and software engineering.

Today it is safe, but it depends on the method of emulation of presses (as far as I know)

make sure it's not spamming your button 6000 times every second. make it "human-like" e.g. 1-3 presses per second, randomized delay per press 80-300ms. something like that should help

Warden primarily looks for repetition and flagged MD5s. If you're running a private application that isn't either of those and not editing or interacting with game memory, it's highly unlikely you will get banned.
