update-submodule

Procedure for safely bumping a PoKeysHal submodule pointer (pokeyslib or hal-canon). Use when updating a pinned submodule SHA to a newer upstream commit.

hil-tdd

Run Red-Green-Refactor development against a registered PoKeys hardware-in-the-loop fixture. Use for changes whose acceptance criteria depend on real PoKeys hardware, firmware, HAL pin propagation, PEv2 behavior, electrical loopbacks, or measured timing.

update-readme

Full README rewrite or structural overhaul for PoKeysHal. Use when significantly restructuring a README, adding new major sections, or bringing an outdated README up to date with the current implementation.

convert-to-hal-rtapi

Convert a synchronous PoKeysLib subsystem into a non-blocking, LinuxCNC RT-capable async HAL implementation. Use when creating or modifying PoKeysLib*Async.c subsystem implementations, adding HAL pin exports, or verifying PoKeys protocol compliance for async…

qtpyvcp-ui-generator

Generate complete QtPyVCP user interface artifacts (.ui XML, Python module, YAML config, optional .qss) from natural-language specifications without Qt Designer. Use when building LinuxCNC machine control interfaces with the QtPyVCP framework.
