rdk-board-knowledge

rdk-board-knowledge is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from D-Robotics/moss. It costs 330 tokens per session (4,876 once invoked), scanned D, original, MIT.

A reference for identifying D-Robotics RDK boards and diagnosing their common hardware, software, and connectivity problems. It also covers flashing S-series boards.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to identify a board, check its system baseline, troubleshoot cameras, models, TROS/ROS2, packages, GPIO, buses, power, and networking, or flash an S100, S100P, or S600.
Why use it?
It prevents incorrect instructions caused by guessing the board model, operating system, or runtime. The same command, package, camera setup, or pin can differ between boards.

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 D, and why

rdk-board-knowledge scanned grade D with 2 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 5d 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.

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

RDK Board Baseline & Failure Diagnosis

Before answering any RDK problem, confirm the board from on-board facts, not from the user's words. The board determines every downstream answer — package names, TROS path, toolchain, camera node, default IP. Guessing the board (e.g. assuming X5) is the single most common way these answers go wrong.

Sources: official D-Robotics docs rdk_doc / rdk_x_doc / rdk_s_doc (08_FAQ + 01_Quick_start/install_os), the OpenExplorer / 天工开物 (TianGong) toolchains, and reproduced community cases. Facts are carried over with provenance; nothing is invented.

The one move that matters most

Run a read-only identity probe first. Never flash, upgrade, or drive GPIO before you know the board:

cat /sys/class/socinfo/board_id     # X5 / S-series read this (srpi-config, hobot_mipi_cam use it)
cat /sys/class/socinfo/som_name     # X3 docs use som_name; pick one per board
cat /proc/device-tree/model         # literal model string; fallback /etc/board_config.json
cat /etc/version                     # OS/RDK image version (2.1.0+ also has `rdkos_info`)

If the output doesn't map cleanly to X3/X5/Ultra/S100/S100P/S600, ask for more logs — do not assume X5.

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.

rdk-board-knowledge is a skill published in the GitHub repository D-Robotics/moss (142 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 330 tokens to every session and 4,876 once invoked, about $0.0016 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it D with 2 findings (asks for root, recursive force delete). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
