AI coding agents get much more interesting when they can touch real hardware. I used Codex to compile, upload, monitor serial consoles, analyze failures, and iterate on two ESP32-based T-Beam boards until a BLE file-transfer bug in fresh C++ #Reticulum interface was fixed.

Hardware-in-the-loop debugging feels like a real shift and shifts the development cycle into 6th gear.

@VogueLaGalere This is staggeringly encouraging. Great write-up. I think you are really onto something. I just used Claude Code today to fix reticulum on a #cardputer (also esp32). I have a supreme rnode under the roof running for over 10 months without interruption on a nixos laptop.
