Then ask your AI: use the /flash - Build and flash OTGW-firmware skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by rvdbreemen/otgw-firmware in .claude/skills/flash/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Build firmware and filesystem, then flash both to the connected ESP via USB. Fully automated, no user interaction required.

Steps

Run these commands sequentially. Stop and report if any step fails.

cd D:\Users\Robert\Documents\GitHub\RvdB\OTGW-firmware
python build.py
python flash_esp.py --build --no-interactive

The build.py without flags builds both firmware AND filesystem. The flash_esp.py --build --no-interactive flashes both to the ESP without prompts, auto-detecting the serial port.

After flashing

Report:

  • Build result (firmware size, filesystem size)
  • Flash result (port used, success/failure)
  • The firmware version that was flashed (from version.h)
