GlosSI formerly knows as GloSC (Global Steam Controller), is a tool that allows one to use Steam-Input controller rebinding at a system-level alongside a system wide (borderless window) Steam overlay
The primary use case of GlosSI is to use SteamInput (required for SteamController / SteamDeck-buttons) with incompatible Games such as Windows-Store titles or Emulators.
GlosSI can, but isn't required to, launch any of your favorite games or applications and directly add them to Steam, be it Win32 or Windows Store (UWP)!
As I don't think holding on to deprecated dependencies is a good way of moving forward, this effectively kills GlosSI as well since without ViGEm and HidHide GlosSI cannot function.
I also want to take the opportunity to give a MASSIVE shoutout to @Nefarius , the creator of ViGEm, HidHide and many other awesome tools
Back when good old GloSC was just a cobbled together PoC using parts of the very old ScpToolkit he has been massively helpful and even shared ViGEm with me way before it was ready to be run on any machine that doesn't belong to a wizard (or should I say sorcerer?) like him.

Will GlosSI continue?
Probably. But most likely not in its current form.
@Nefarius wizardry is continuing and a successor to ViGEm is being worked on, but nothing has been publicly released, yet.
As I severely lack the time to properly maintain a project like GlosSI (as you probably have already noticed, I'm sure), I'm quite fond of the idea of rebooting the project yet again, once ViGEms successor becomes available.
However, I'm not sure if I find the time and motivation again to continue with GlosSI
Until I can (and want to) get my hands on it, the future is unsure...
- a Steam remote play / steam game streaming solution. (That being said, it **can** work, but is not guaranteed to.)
The experience when doing this is most likeley miserable; Thus there is **no support for this use case**.
- Old versions (GloSC, Global [S]team[C]ontroller) were never designed to be used with anything other than said controller, GlosSI can be used with any controller.

GloSC got mentioned from Valve in the [Steam client beta change log on the 9. of January 2017](https://twitter.com/flatspotpics/status/818697837055770624)
