Looks like he bent a paper clip to restore the bounce to the clip that springs open to hold the keyboard up at an angle, which is better for your wrists than typing on it while it’s flat.
I wish people would stop spreading that myth. It’s better that you keep your wrists flat than angled upwards. If you’re the kind of person who rests your wrists on the keyboard then you need to keep the keyboard flat not angled. Angled keyboards are only better if you float your wrists like people who used to use typewriters did.
The flipper that makes the keyboard more inclined. The little bendy thing on the upper side in the Pic looks broken, so it looks like wire was bent in place to replace that tension and hold the flapper in place.
So a minor fix to a little broken bit of plastic, very dull indeed.
What am I looking at here?

Indeed.
