Patchcord

Patchcord is an agent-friendly way to build CircuitPython projects. It connects a normal project folder on the computer with the microcontroller board on the desk, providing one command-line interface for moving code onto the board, seeing what it does, and keeping track of the software and hardware that belong together. The code remains ordinary Python and the board still runs ordinary CircuitPython. Patchcord takes care of the repetitive work around it and gives coding agents a predictable, cautious way to help with a physical project. What it does Keeps the code, libraries, and hardware description together in one project that can be backed up and returned to later. Finds the connected board, sends it the latest code, restarts it, and reports whether the program started successfully. Shows and saves messages from the board, making errors easier to understand and revisit. Manages CircuitPython libraries and diagnoses common problems with the project or connected hardware. Gives…
