Probably a beken chip, should be easy enough to flash OpenBeken using the pins if they're exposed You can usually take over tuya devices if you sign up for a developer account and go some sort of verification process, it's pretty easy, sometimes it's possible to get a token for local control (tuya-local)

Ah good old Tuya.

Played around with them a while go.

Found out you could do code execution while staying in the bootloader mode.. lol.

But wasn't able to extract the keys I wanted.

high chance you can just flash a suitable base firmware directly through pins on the board
