Agent Skills: Arduino Project Builder

Build complete, production-ready Arduino projects (environmental monitors, robot controllers, IoT devices, automation systems). Assembles multi-component systems combining sensors, actuators, communication protocols, state machines, data logging, and power management. Supports Arduino UNO, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi Pico with board-specific optimizations. Use this skill when users request complete Arduino applications, not just code snippets.

Skill Metadata

Name
arduino-project-builder
Description
Build complete Arduino and embedded projects across Arduino IDE, Arduino CLI, PlatformIO, and vendor-specific toolchains. Use when users request an application combining firmware, sensors, actuators, networking, power, or deployment rather than a code snippet. The bundled scaffold targets UNO, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi Pico; use the board profile and document limitations for other targets.

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

Intake And Evidence Boundary

Before assembling a project, read the shared contract and fill the board profile. Record the exact board, framework, toolchain, versions, pins, memory, power, protocols, and recovery path. Keep build, upload, hardware, system, and deployment proof separate; a generated scaffold is not hardware validation.

The scaffold script emits its supported board targets and PlatformIO structure. For another board or vendor framework, reuse the requirements and architecture workflow, then provide a toolchain-specific implementation rather than changing the script's claimed support.
