Agent skill

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.

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:

bash
uv run --no-project scripts/scaffold_project.py --list

Create a complete project:

bash
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:

bash
uv run --no-project scripts/scaffold_project.py --interactive

Resources

  • examples/ - Complete project examples (environmental monitor, robot controller, IoT device)
  • scripts/scaffold_project.py - CLI tool for project scaffolding (config.h, main.ino, platformio.ini, README)
  • assets/workflow.mmd - Mermaid diagram of project assembly workflow

Supported Project Types

Environmental Monitors

Multi-sensor data loggers (temperature, humidity, light, air quality)

See Environmental Monitor Example

Robot Controllers

Motor control, sensor fusion, obstacle avoidance, state machines

See Robot Controller Example

IoT Devices

WiFi/MQTT data transmission, cloud integration, remote monitoring

See IoT Device Example

Home Automation

Relay control, scheduled tasks, sensor-triggered actions

Data Acquisition Systems

High-frequency sampling, SD card logging, real-time visualization

Project Assembly Workflow

  • Requirements Gathering - Analyze user request and gather project specifications
  • Architecture Design - Design component connections, data flow, and state machines
  • Code Assembly - Combine patterns and customize for user hardware
  • Testing & Validation - Verify compilation, memory usage, and functionality
  • Documentation - Create wiring diagrams, usage instructions, and troubleshooting guides

Quality Standards & Rules

  • Quality Standards - Hardware abstraction, non-blocking code, error handling, and memory safety requirements
  • Integration Checklist - Pre-delivery verification for sensor validation, timing, and reliability
  • Board Considerations - UNO, ESP32, and RP2040 specific optimizations and constraints

Project Output Template

  • Output Template - Standardized format for delivering complete Arduino projects

Resources

  • examples/ - Complete project examples with full implementations
  • scripts/scaffold_project.py - CLI tool for project scaffolding with config.h, main.ino, platformio.ini, README
  • assets/workflow.mmd - Mermaid diagram of project assembly workflow
  • workflow/ - Step-by-step project assembly process
  • rules/ - Quality standards and board-specific optimizations
  • templates/ - Project output templates and documentation standards
