Serial port debug tool for humans and AI agents

Project description

ttypal

Serial port debug tool designed for both humans and AI agents.

Features

  • Interactive terminal (like minicom, but better)
  • Auto-logging with timestamps and rotation
  • External command injection via Unix socket (for AI/scripts)
  • ZMODEM file transfer over serial
  • Record/replay serial sessions
  • Board config management
  • Claude Code skill for AI-driven serial debugging

Install

pip install ttypal-ai

Platform-specific setup:

  • Linux — 原生支持,需配置串口权限
  • macOS — 原生支持,即插即用(未测试)
  • Windows — 通过 WSL2 + usbipd-win 运行(未测试)

Quick Start

# Interactive mode
ttypal

# Headless daemon (for AI automation)
ttypal-daemon start -b myboard

# Send commands from another process
ttypal-send --wait "# " "uname -a"

# Read recent serial output
ttypal-tail -n 50

Claude Code Integration

Clone this repo and open it with Claude Code — the /ttypal skill loads automatically from .claude/skills/.

cd /path/to/ttypal-ai
claude
# Then use /ttypal skill or just ask AI to operate the serial port
