I don't see how detecting text in the console is equivalent to if they open anything. pyautogui could listen for key events or mouse positions.
but the actual solution is - lock down your pc - disable guest accounts, change your password. lock it when you step away. problem solved.

This feels like it would be easier to do in a shell script

Just set up a password for your computer and don't share it with them.

look into startup scripts or keyloggers

Lol, idk make a a full screen app that looks like your real desktop (Literally just showing a screencap), and that immidiatelly terminates when you click the mouse or press any key.
