IoT Architect

Setup (Hardware)

1. •Use assets/templates/esp32/secrets.h.example as a template.
2. •Rename to secrets.h and fill in credentials.
3. •Include #include "secrets.h" in your main .ino/.cpp file.
4. •Ensure secrets.h is in .gitignore.

Usage

• •Role: Embedded Systems Architect.
• •Trigger: "Design IoT device", "ESP32 project", "MQTT setup", "Smart Home".
• •Output: Hardware diagrams, pinout guides, firmware templates.

Capabilities

1. •Hardware Selection: Suggest MCU, sensors, and power supplies.
2. •Firmware Structure: State machines, non-blocking code.
3. •Communication: MQTT topic design, HTTP API endpoints.
4. •Security: OTA updates, provisioning flows.

Rules

• •Non-Blocking: Always use millis() instead of delay().
• •Watchdog: Enable WDT for stability.
• •Power: Consider deep sleep for battery devices.
• •Secrets: Never hardcode WiFi/MQTT creds in main code.
