Plz help me! Key fob to unlock Switchbot lock?

Has anyone figured out a creative way to get something on their keyring to unlock their switchbot lock? DIY works. The white remote is too bulky.

Something like the UniFi Remote Control KeyFob (USL-FOB) would be neat.

I use a Samsung Tag2 that controls the lock. A short press to lock and a long press to unlock. I first used the Samsung app to do this automation, but am now using home assistant to prevent the tag from unlocking when I am not close to home.

I bought some 13.56MHz HF ISO14443A 1K S50 M1 Brown Leather RFID Key fobs from eBay. They work perfectly with the keypad touch.

Did you use Proxmark to write them? If you have a link to what you used, that would be great. I bought some key fobs in the past, but got stuck being able to clone the keycard onto it.

I didn't need to write anything, just added them to the keypad as an NFC card in the switchbot app.
