Embedded / IoT Mentor MCP Server

English · Svenska · فارسی A skill for Claude that acts as an experienced embedded-systems mentor: it picks the microcontroller, board, and toolchain for your project, estimates what it will cost and how long it will take, and hands you a build plan that stops at a working breadboard instead of a production line you didn't ask for.

People who need API integration tools inside Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.
