What it solves

It enables AI Agents (such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Continue) to actively participate in the development cycle of TI MSPM0 microcontrollers. It bridges the gap between an LLM's code generation and the actual hardware configuration, build process, and on-device debugging, preventing the Agent from blindly overwriting critical configuration files.

How it works

The project provides a set of "skills" consisting of rules, Python scripts, and verified examples that the Agent can invoke. Instead of manually editing C files, the Agent uses these tools to:

• Manage SysConfig: Modify .syscfg files directly to handle clock trees, PinMux, and DMA without corrupting the generated driver code.
• Automate Toolchains: Interface with various build systems (CCS, Keil, CMake/GCC) and flashing tools (DSLite, J-Link, OpenOCD).
• Hardware Debugging: Use scripts to check probe connectivity, manage breakpoints, and inspect registers via CCS-DSS or OpenOCD/GDB.
• Closed-loop Validation: Use Python serial scripts to send/receive data for real-time parameter tuning (e.g., PID control).

Who it’s for

Embedded developers and students (specifically those preparing for electronics competitions) using TI MSPM0 microcontrollers who want to use AI Agents to accelerate their hardware configuration and debugging workflow.

Highlights

• SysConfig Integration: Directly understands and modifies .syscfg files while preserving metadata.
• Multi-Toolchain Support: Compatible with CCS Theia, Keil, VS Code, and CLion.
• ** uma Probe Detection**: Supports J-Link, XDS110, and DAPLink/CMSIS-DAP.
• Recovery Guidance: Helps diagnose probe disconnection or chip locking and guides users through factory resets or mass erases.
• Verified Examples: Includes pre-tested routines for GPIO, PWM, Timer, and UART+DMA.
