What is reachy-mini-apps?

A development workflow for building applications for Reachy Mini, a small programmable robot, using its official software tools.

It is for creating, testing, publishing, and debugging robot apps, including movement, sensors, camera and audio features, remote controls, and conversational behavior.

It helps developers choose the correct robot mode, check the controlling service, and avoid unsafe or incompatible motion and connectivity patterns.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00073	$0.00573
Opus 5.5	$0.00029	$0.00229
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00015	$0.00115
Haiku 4.5	$0.00007	$0.00057

Measured 2mo ago against content hash 8ba0002cb69e, method: parsed. Prices are Anthropic first-party input rates as of 2026-10-07, from the pricing page.

Security

Grade A, and why

reachy-mini-apps 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 2mo 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.

Reachy Mini Apps

Build Reachy Mini apps with the official workflows and safety patterns.

First checks

Ask which target is in scope: Lite, Wireless, or Simulation.
Confirm daemon availability before coding behaviors.
Prefer app scaffolding with reachy-mini-app-assistant; do not handcraft app folders.

Route by task

For create, check, and publish workflows, read references/app-lifecycle.md.
For motion architecture, control loops, and torque safety, read references/motion-control.md.
For non-Python or remote control, read references/api-endpoints.md.
For fast command and snippet lookup, read references/api-quick-reference.md.
For connectivity and runtime failures, read references/debug-checklist.md.
For LLM-powered or conversational robots, read references/ai-integration.md.
For camera/audio/IMU app patterns, read references/sensors-media.md.
For antenna/head-driven UX patterns, read references/interaction-patterns.md.
For mathematical move composition, read references/symbolic-motion.md.
For first-time machine setup, read references/setup-environment.md.
For pre-release validation, read references/testing-apps.md.
For canonical source entry points, read references/source-map.md.

Non-negotiables

Use Python app templates for app-store compatible apps.
Keep exactly one control loop as the only place that calls set_target.
Use goto_target for scripted gestures and transitions.
Move to a safe pose before disabling motors.
Sync target to current pose before enabling motors to avoid jumps.
Verify method signatures in source before using an SDK function.

Standard commands

# Create app (default template)
reachy-mini-app-assistant create <app_name> <path> --publish

# Create app (conversation template)
reachy-mini-app-assistant create --template conversation <app_name> <path> --publish

# Validate app package and metadata
reachy-mini-app-assistant check <app_path>

# Start daemon
reachy-mini-daemon
reachy-mini-daemon --sim

What ships with it

13 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
