Micius
Terminal first embedded agent workbench for connecting LLMs to real world devices, sensors, serial ports, and board level tools, with PlatformIO build and upload workflows.
What it does and how it connects
Micius-Agent is a terminal-first embedded agent workbench for real devices. It keeps the main agent on the computer and exposes connected hardware through controlled tools, local device signals, PDF manuals, and lightweight device nodes. It is designed to help a large language model see, remember, and operate real-world embedded systems without requiring every development board to run a full coding agent locally.
It covers heterogeneous embedded and robotics hardware: MCU boards, Linux-capable boards, edge-AI devices, sensors, cameras, actuators, robots, and custom device nodes. Hardware is reached through USB, serial, PlatformIO-compatible toolchains, PDF manuals, cameras, sensors, and device nodes, and board profiles, port maps, attempts, and working commands become reusable hardware workflows.
The first smoke test needs no API key or hardware: after installing, micius demo runs a local-mode check and lists no-hardware commands such as doctor, usb, board list, model, and commands. Atlas-class boards and ESP32 and ESP32-S3 boards are the current validation targets and examples, not the boundary of the project, per the README. The README states the project status is prototype.
