twislaandClaude Opus 5.5 74a341418e M1 step 4b: IRC Service on the device; 8-bit frame buffer
- IrcService: networking on its own task, TLS with the built-in CA
  bundle (or trust-on-first-use pinning when self-signed is allowed),
  plain TCP when TLS is off; connects only while Wi-Fi is Connected,
  marks pauses for Monitoring, reconnects with backoff, pings a quiet
  server, writes Logs, raises Notifications for Mentions
- Session: forget /quit once disconnected (it was handled every loop);
  the server Buffer never counts as unread (MOTD showed as [4])
- Status Bar: unread count
- Frame buffer 16 -> 8-bit colour (M1 Q46): min free heap with IRC on
  TLS went from 51 KB to 79 KB
- Serial: irc start / say / dump

Verified on the device against irc.libera.chat:6697: certificate
checked, joined #roro9stack-test, sent a message, quit cleanly.

# roro9stack
A multi-app firmware for the **M5Stack Cardputer ADV** with the **Cap LoRa-1262**. It's a Meshtastic-compatible mesh messenger, plus Wi-Fi tools, IRC, GNSS and more. Licensed GPL-3.0.
- Domain language: [CONTEXT.md](CONTEXT.md)
- Decisions: [docs/adr/](docs/adr/)
- Milestones: [docs/milestones/](docs/milestones/)
## Requirements
Only **Docker** is needed. PlatformIO and the ESP32 toolchain run inside a container, and are cached in the `roro9stack-pio` Docker volume. The first build downloads about 1 GB and takes a few minutes.
## Build and test (local CI)
```sh
scripts/ci.sh
```
This runs the host-side unit tests (`test/`, `native` environment), then builds the firmware. The output is `.pio/build/cardputer-adv/firmware.factory.bin`.
## Flash
1. Connect the Cardputer by USB-C.
2. Run:
```sh
scripts/flash.sh # auto-detects the port; or: scripts/flash.sh /dev/ttyACM1
```
This uploads the firmware, then opens the serial monitor. Quit the monitor with `Ctrl+C`.
**If the upload can't connect,** put the device in download mode: hold **G0** (the button next to the screen) while plugging in USB, or while pressing reset. Then retry.
**If you get "permission denied" on the port,** your user needs access to the serial device. Run this once, then log out and back in:
```sh
sudo usermod -aG dialout "$USER"
```
## Development aids
`scripts/serial_log.sh [seconds] [command…]` records the serial output, and can send commands to the firmware first. For example, `scripts/serial_log.sh 30 short sleep:12 burst` sets short screen timeouts, waits 12 s, then sends a burst of Toasts.
| Command | Effect |
|---|---|
| `burst` | Publishes 5 Notifications at once |
| `key up\|down\|left\|right\|select\|back\|home` | Injects a logical key press |
| `sound on` / `sound off` | Toggles the Sound setting (beep + LED) |
| `short` / `normal` | Screen timeouts 5 s / 10 s, or 30 s / 60 s |
| `wifi add <ssid><TAB><password>` | Adds a Saved Network (so credentials stay out of the repo) |
| `log <text>` | Appends a line to a test IRC Log (`/irc/dev/#test/<date>.log`) |
| `sd list` | Lists the files of each Storage Clean-up category |
| `irc start` | Starts the IRC Service (normally done by opening the IRC App) |
| `irc say <buffer> <text>` | Types into a Buffer, commands included (`irc say 0 /join #test`) |
| `irc dump` | Prints IRC status, memory, and the last lines of each Buffer |
| `wifi status` | Prints Wi-Fi state, network, signal, clock and free heap |
`scripts/flash.sh` stops a running serial log first, since it would hold the port.
