💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with aio-usb-hotplug 
Create a Python-based mini-application called 'USB Guardian' which monitors USB devices connected to a system and logs all insertions and removals in real-time. This application should use the 'aio-usb-hotplug' package to asynchronously detect USB hotplug events. Here are the steps and features you need to implement:

1. **Setup**: Initialize your Python environment and install necessary packages including 'aio-usb-hotplug'.
2. **Event Detection**: Use 'aio-usb-hotplug' to set up an asynchronous generator that listens for USB hotplug events.
3. **Logging Mechanism**: Implement a logging feature where each event (device insertion or removal) is recorded with timestamp, device name, and vendor ID. Logs should be stored in a local file.
4. **Real-Time Notifications**: Integrate a feature that sends a notification (e.g., via email or a simple console message) whenever a USB device is inserted or removed.
5. **Device Identification**: Enhance the application to identify specific types of USB devices (like USB drives, keyboards, mice) and log them accordingly.
6. **Security Alert**: Add an alert mechanism that triggers if unauthorized USB devices are detected based on predefined rules (e.g., unknown vendor IDs).
7. **User Interface**: Develop a basic command-line interface that allows users to start/stop monitoring and view the logs.
8. **Testing and Documentation**: Ensure the application works as expected through testing and provide comprehensive documentation for setup and usage.

This project aims to showcase the capabilities of 'aio-usb-hotplug' in a practical, security-focused application.
