# SaltyLab Firmware — Agent Playbook
|
||
|
||
## Project
|
||
**SAUL-TEE** — 4-wheel wagon (870×510×550 mm, 23 kg).
|
||
Two ESP32-S3 boards + Jetson Orin via CAN. Full spec: `docs/SAUL-TEE-SYSTEM-REFERENCE.md`
|
||
|
||
| Board | Role |
|
||
|-------|------|
|
||
| **ESP32-S3 BALANCE** | QMI8658 IMU, PID balance, CAN→VESC (L:68 / R:56), GC9A01 LCD (Waveshare Touch LCD 1.28) |
|
||
| **ESP32-S3 IO** | TBS Crossfire RC, ELRS failover, BTS7960 motors, NFC/baro/ToF, WS2812 |
|
||
| **Jetson Orin** | AI/SLAM, CANable2 USB→CAN, cmds 0x300–0x303, telemetry 0x400–0x401 |
|
||
|
||
> **Legacy:** `src/` and `include/` = archived STM32 HAL — do not extend. New firmware in `esp32/`.
|
||
|
||
## Team
|
||
| Agent | Role | Focus |
|
||
|-------|------|-------|
|
||
| **sl-firmware** | Embedded Firmware Lead | ESP32-S3, ESP-IDF, QMI8658, CAN/UART protocol, BTS7960 |
|
||
| **sl-controls** | Control Systems Engineer | PID tuning, IMU fusion, balance loop, safety |
|
||
| **sl-perception** | Perception / SLAM Engineer | Jetson Orin, RealSense D435i, RPLIDAR, ROS2, Nav2 |
|
||
|
||
## Status
|
||
USB CDC TX bug resolved (PR #10 — DCache MPU non-cacheable region + IWDG ordering fix).
|
||
|
||
## Repo Structure
|
||
- `projects/saltybot/SALTYLAB.md` — Design doc
|
||
- `USB_CDC_BUG.md` — USB peripheral conflict details
|
||
- `TEAM.md` — Team roles specification
|
||
|
||
## Branch Strategy (issue #28)
|
||
|
||
### Variant branches
|
||
| Branch | Purpose |
|
||
|--------|---------|
|
||
| `saltylab` | Stable — SaltyLab 2-wheel balance bot (promoted from saltylab-dev) |
|
||
| `saltylab-dev` | Integration — SaltyLab balance bot; agents target this branch |
|
||
| `saltyrover` | Stable — 4-wheel rover variant |
|
||
| `saltyrover-dev` | Integration — rover variant |
|
||
| `saltytank` | Stable — tracked tank variant |
|
||
| `saltytank-dev` | Integration — tank variant |
|
||
| `main` | Shared code only (IMU drivers, USB CDC, balance core, safety) |
|
||
|
||
### Rules
|
||
- Agents branch FROM `<variant>-dev` and PR back TO `<variant>-dev`
|
||
- Shared/infrastructure code (IMU drivers, USB CDC, balance core, safety) goes in `main`
|
||
- Variant-specific code (motor topology, kinematics, config) goes in variant branches
|
||
- Stable branches get promoted from `-dev` after review and hardware testing
|
||
- **Current SaltyLab team** works against `saltylab-dev`
|
||
|
||
### Git Workflow
|
||
- Branch naming: `<agent>/<slug>` (e.g., `sl-firmware/usb-cdc-fix`)
|
||
- For shared code targeting `main`: `<agent>/bd-<id>-<slug>`
|
||
- Before every push: `git fetch origin && git rebase origin/<base-branch>`
|
||
- Gitea: `gitea.vayrette.com/seb/saltylab-firmware`
|
||
|
||
## Communication
|
||
- Report progress to max via MQTT: `AGENT_NAME=<agent> ~/agent-mqtt/agent-send max "<message>"`
|
||
- Check inbox: `~/agent-mqtt/agent-read 2>/dev/null | tail -15`
|
||
- Prioritize messages from max (PM)
|
||
|
||
## Beads (Task System)
|
||
```bash
|
||
cd /Users/seb/AI/saltylab-firmware
|
||
br list # List open beads
|
||
br update <id> --claim # Claim a bead
|
||
br close <id> --reason "Done. PR #N"
|
||
br comment <id> "message"
|
||
```
