What it does
Serial Shell is an agent skill from LeoKemp223/embed-ai-tool. 当需要通过串口与嵌入式设备建立交互式 Shell 会话、执行单条命令或批量脚本时使用。
Its SKILL.md is about 660 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `shell_proxy.py`).
It sits in Development. It works with Linux and Python. The repository describes itself as: 面向 AI 编程助手的嵌入式开发技能集，为大模型提供 MCU 固件开发全流程能力。涵盖多工具链构建（Keil / IAR / CMake / PlatformIO）、烧录、GDB 调试、串口监视、Modbus / CAN / VISA 协议调试、外设驱动适配及流水线编排，支持 Linux、macOS、Windows 三平台。
When your agent uses it
- Development work in your project
Example prompts
- “/serial-shell”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
8 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- 确认 pyserial 已安装（pip install pyserial），若缺失则返回 environment-missing 并指导安装。
- 运行自带脚本 shell_proxy.py，根据用户意图选择模式
- 若设备 Shell 需要先登录或进入特定目录，使用 --init "<命令>"（可重复多次），按顺序在连接后自动发送。
- 若设备回显乱码，先用 --encoding gbk 尝试；若仍无法识别，用 --hex 查看原始字节辅助诊断。
- 若设备使用 RS-485 半双工，启用 --rs485；若需捕获逐字符回显，进一步启用 --rs485-byte。
- 若需要将输出保存到文件，使用 --log <文件路径>。
- 读取脚本输出时，重点关注命令执行结果、错误信息和 Shell 提示符返回状态，而不是只转述原始文本。
- 将确认有效的串口、波特率和编码写回 Project Profile。
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9218f23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships script files (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pythonpip
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Serial Shell loads about 661 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 14 tokens; SKILL.md has 197 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 197 words (~661 tokens).
- name
- serial-shell
Files
SKILL.md and 1 other file in skills/serial-shell of LeoKemp223/embed-ai-tool.
