| name | arduino-cli-ecosystem-specs |
| description | Authoring and compliance guidance for the Arduino CLI ecosystem specifications. Use when requests involve package index, platform, library format, pluggable discovery, or pluggable monitor specifications, including ecosystem-compatible hardware package design. |
Workflow
- Identify which specification controls the requested artifact.
- Validate field names and constraints against the relevant spec.
- Keep examples minimal and aligned with current CLI behavior.
- Call out compatibility implications across cores, tools, and monitors.
Specification Coverage
- Package index JSON specification
- Platform specification
- Library specification
- Pluggable discovery specification
- Pluggable monitor specification
Defaults
- Prefer spec-compliant examples over ad-hoc conventions.
- Keep references to required fields explicit and testable.
ICL Examples (Captured 2026-02-14)
- Validate FQBN and platform-id naming patterns across board catalog output.
arduino-cli --config-dir /tmp/arduino_cli_suite_icl_data board search nano
Observed mapping included Arduino Nano -> arduino:avr:nano with platform ID arduino:avr.
2. Inspect board option schema for processor variants.
arduino-cli --config-dir /tmp/arduino_cli_suite_icl_data board details -b arduino:avr:nano
Observed spec-like option key/value pairs including Processor (cpu) and cpu=atmega328old.
