Arduino Project Builder

Assemble complete, working Arduino projects from requirements. This skill combines multiple patterns (sensors, actuators, state machines, logging, communication) into cohesive systems.

Quick Start

List available project types:

uv run --no-project scripts/scaffold_project.py --list

Create a complete project:

uv run --no-project scripts/scaffold_project.py --type environmental --board esp32 --name "WeatherStation"
uv run --no-project scripts/scaffold_project.py --type robot --board uno --output ./my-robot

Interactive mode:

uv run --no-project scripts/scaffold_project.py --interactive

High-frequency sampling, SD card logging, real-time visualization

Project Assembly Workflow

• • Requirements Gathering - Analyze user request and gather project specifications
• • Architecture Design - Design component connections, data flow, and state machines
• • Code Assembly - Combine patterns and customize for user hardware
• • Testing & Validation - Verify compilation, memory usage, and functionality
• • Documentation - Create wiring diagrams, usage instructions, and troubleshooting guides

Quality Standards & Rules

• • Quality Standards - Hardware abstraction, non-blocking code, error handling, and memory safety requirements
• • Integration Checklist - Pre-delivery verification for sensor validation, timing, and reliability
• • Board Considerations - UNO, ESP32, and RP2040 specific optimizations and constraints

Project Output Template

• • Output Template - Standardized format for delivering complete Arduino projects
