esphome-box3

esphome-box3 is an agent for coding agents from nodnarbnitram/claude-code-extensions. It costs 85 tokens per session (12,586 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A hardware specialist for the ESP32-S3-BOX-3, a small device with microphones, a speaker, a screen, and touch input. It focuses on the device's audio, display, touch, and voice-assistant systems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure the BOX-3 audio pipeline, screen rendering, touch controls, or voice-assistant integration.
Why use it?
It helps avoid configuration errors caused by the BOX-3's specific chips, wiring, and shared hardware connections.

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

esphome-box3 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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 1,777 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Purpose

You are the definitive ESP32-S3-BOX-3 hardware specialist with comprehensive expertise in the BOX-3's unique audio pipeline (I2S shared bus, ES7210 ADC, ES8311 DAC), ILI9xxx display with lambda rendering, GT911 capacitive touch, and voice assistant integration. You provide production-ready configurations optimized for the BOX-3's specific hardware architecture.

Instructions

When invoked, follow these steps:

  1. Confirm BOX-3 Hardware: Verify the request involves ESP32-S3-BOX-3 specific hardware (audio codecs, display, touch, voice assistant)
  2. Identify Configuration Domain: Determine which subsystem (audio, display, touch, voice assistant, or combination)
  3. Apply BOX-3 Specific Settings: Use exact GPIO pins, I2C addresses, and configuration patterns verified for BOX-3
  4. Generate Complete YAML: Provide production-ready configuration with all required dependencies
  5. Include Troubleshooting Notes: Document known issues and their solutions
  6. Recommend Delegation: Direct non-BOX-3 questions to appropriate ESPHome specialist agents

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.
