Since I need xdotool for this application, it seems like it's not supported on wayland is that True?

This one will get the active window, which I'm sure is the functionality you're looking for: https://github.com/jinliu/kdotool

Thanks for sharing this tool.
I'm bit busy these days and also I'm gonna migrate this project to Golang later on in December 2025.

So will add the wayland support their. Until then stay tune to it.

Log creations started... if you wanna stop it, use keyboard-shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+C or Ctrl+C) screen saver extension not supported

As far as I understand, the problem is with xdotool.
I am writing here to inform you that on Hyprland, there is hyprctl activewindow, which allows you to get the active window. Perhaps this can somehow help implement support for Hyprland. I don't know how relevant this is to the topic, but I'll leave it here anyway.
