pinpoint

pinpoint is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ncssm-robotics/ftc-claude. It costs 47 tokens per session (1,395 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup and troubleshooting guide for the GoBILDA Pinpoint odometry computer, a robot sensor that estimates the robot’s position while it moves.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when connecting Pinpoint to an FTC robot, setting pod offsets, tuning encoders, checking LED codes, or connecting it to Pedro Pathing for autonomous movement.
Why use it?
It helps avoid configuration mistakes with sensor placement, encoder direction, and device settings. It also explains status lights and common localization problems.

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

pinpoint 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 10d 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.

GoBilda Pinpoint Odometry Computer

The Pinpoint performs sensor fusion between two dead-wheel odometry pods and an internal IMU at ~1500Hz (vs typical 100-300Hz), providing highly accurate position tracking.

Quick Start with Pedro Pathing

1. Hardware Configuration

In your robot configuration (Driver Station), add the Pinpoint as an I2C device:

  • Type: goBILDA Pinpoint Odometry Computer
  • Name: pinpoint
  • Port: Any I2C port except port 0 (reserved for IMU)

2. PinpointConstants Setup

In Constants.java:

public static PinpointConstants localizerConstants = new PinpointConstants()
    .forwardPodY(0)           // Forward pod Y offset in inches (see POD_OFFSETS.md)
    .strafePodX(-4)           // Strafe pod X offset in inches
    .hardwareMapName("pinpoint")
    .encoderResolution(GoBildaPinpointDriver.GoBildaOdometryPods.goBILDA_4_BAR_POD)
    .forwardEncoderDirection(GoBildaPinpointDriver.EncoderDirection.FORWARD)
    .strafeEncoderDirection(GoBildaPinpointDriver.EncoderDirection.FORWARD);

3. Add to FollowerBuilder

public static Follower createFollower(HardwareMap hardwareMap) {
    return new FollowerBuilder(followerConstants, hardwareMap)
        .pinpointLocalizer(localizerConstants)
        .mecanumDrivetrain(driveConstants)
        .build();
}

Encoder Resolution Options

Pod Type Constant Ticks/mm
goBILDA 4-Bar Pod goBILDA_4_BAR_POD 19.89
goBILDA Swingarm Pod goBILDA_SWINGARM_POD 13.26
Custom .customEncoderResolution(ticks_per_mm) -

LED Status Reference

Color Status Action
Green READY Normal operation
Red CALIBRATING Wait ~0.25s
Red NOT_READY Device initializing
Purple NO_PODS_DETECTED Check both pod connections
Blue X_POD_NOT_DETECTED Check forward pod (port X)
Orange Y_POD_NOT_DETECTED Check strafe pod (port Y)

Coordinate System

Pinpoint Internal

  • X (forward): Positive when robot moves forward
  • Y (strafe): Positive when robot moves left
  • Heading: Radians, counterclockwise positive
  • Units: mm internally (divide by 25.4 for inches)

What ships with it

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.

pinpoint is a skill published in the GitHub repository ncssm-robotics/ftc-claude (4 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 1,395 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.
