I’d still look into fine tuning. One of the main issues I’m struggling with is that even reasonably simple drivers often need to be aware of Application Notes etc that would single handedly blow past any context window. So giving the model a fighting chance by narrowing the space might be worthwhile here. Top 20 vendors datasheets/docs, handpicked sites and forums etc.

#23Definitely a need, kudos for tackling it! I’d still look into fine tuning.

#26I've been building a set of tools to help with speeding up the reprogramming cycle of embedded, getting it down to about 500ms and not requiring a restart, for logic changes. Combining that with AI, and the "futz factor" of changing and trying things rapidly mirrors a spreadsheet.

#29This looks awesome. Embedded programming doesn’t get enough love. Did you think about making this an MCP (aka plugin) service that general agents a la claude code can leverage?
