I have used Claude to build https://obd.wtf to essentially create a commercial grade diagnostic tool for cars. Now working on new version.

But don't use it, obd read functions are fine but other functions for other diagnostic/actuator etc stuff is not.

Just making it clear: The intention was to make it commercial grade tool, but i am not even 1% there, only doing OBD as proof of concept, and everything else as "future work"

Would love to contribute a dataset of Ford codes I have come across over the years. It's more complete than anything else out there for free.

		Oh wow. Can you email me at tehlike @ gmail. I am taking this slow as I have other priorities, but as models advanced the stuff I Was able to do with limited time have increased, so with new version i still have locally, it may be possible to do more interesting stuff.

what makes it "commercial grade"?

		Most / all consumer diagnostic tools are read only, often pull DTC codes from the vehicle. There are a ton of other stuff you can do with UDS for example. Maintenance resets, actuator testing, coding, all sorts of other stuff. An example I recently did with my car was disabling auto start-top. not possible with consumer tools. Another simple one is maintenance resets - some consumer tools can do this. ABS bleeding - often you can't do it with consumer grade. etc.
