Love this type of stuff but afraid it won't last. Only a matter of time before OEMs ask same LLM to setup secure boot with signed firmware with anti-rollback and pinned certs.

There is already prior art like anything Google (phones, Fitbit)

Then JLCPCB with matching original form factor PCB is just one prompt away, driving a couple of stepper motor is a solved problem…

I suggested replacing a cnc controller in another thread and found out many here aren't hackers!

		I mean you don't even need to be. LLM will help you build parts manifest and write the firmware/controller software! I was working on 2.4ghz remote reverse engineering and Claude wrote esp8266 firmware to drive nrf24l01 before deciding there was an issue with too small send buffer and pivoting to custom nrf52840 firmware for usb dongle. Original device used LT8920 I couldn't find anywhere anymore
