embedded-systems

An agent for firmware and software on small microcontrollers, including systems that must respond within strict time limits. Firmware is software that runs directly on hardware, and an RTOS is an operating system designed for timed tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to develop microcontroller firmware, build RTOS-based applications, and optimize real-time systems.
Why use it?
It focuses work on the limits and reliability requirements of embedded hardware. These systems often have tight limits on memory, processing time, and response delays.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 38 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 1,345 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Origin unknown No closer match found in the catalogue.
Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

embedded-systems scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

embedded-systems is an agent published in the GitHub repository alexmmatos/essentials-claude-code (1 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), with no licence file. It adds 38 tokens to every session and 1,345 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
