Hobbyist builds MCP server into BIOS programmer so Claude Code can debug corrupted firmware
AsianKidTV · reddit · 2026-11-11
A Redditor demonstrated an agent-in-the-loop hardware debugging workflow: a BIOS programmer toolkit with a built-in MCP server, letting Claude Code or any MCP-compatible agent directly interact with hardware.
- The agent can read, write, verify, and back up BIOS firmware via USB programmers like the CH341A and CH347
- It helps diagnose corrupted BIOS and walk through repairs instead of manual flashing
- The project is written in Rust, free and open source; the author is asking where humans should confirm steps, e.g. before a write
