3. Run unit tests relevant to touched modules; add fuzz/HIL coverage when modifying parsers or protocol state machines.
## Copilot Agent Notes (`.github/copilot-instructions.md`)
-- Treat this handbook as authoritative before searching or executing speculative shell commands; unexpected conflicts justify additional probing.
-- Respect build timing guidance: allow ≥5 minutes for single example builds and ≥30 minutes for bulk runs; never cancel dependency fetches or builds mid-flight.
-- Support optional switches: `-DRHPORT_DEVICE[_SPEED]`, logging toggles (`LOG=2`, `LOGGER=rtt`), and board selection helpers from `tools/get_deps.py`.
-- Flashing shortcuts: `ninja <target>-jlink|openocd|uf2` or `make BOARD=<board> flash-{jlink,openocd}`; list Ninja targets with `ninja -t targets`.
-- Keep Ceedling installed (`sudo gem install ceedling`) and available for per-test or full suite runs triggered from `test/unit-test`.
+# TinyUSB
+TinyUSB is an open-source cross-platform USB Host/Device stack for embedded systems, designed to be memory-safe with no dynamic allocation and thread-safe with all interrupt events deferred to non-ISR task functions.
+
+Always reference these instructions first and fallback to search or bash commands only when you encounter unexpected information that does not match the info here.
+
+### Working Effectively
+
+#### Bootstrap and Build Setup
+- Install ARM GCC toolchain: `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y gcc-arm-none-eabi`
+- Fetch core dependencies: `python3 tools/get_deps.py` -- takes <1 second. NEVER CANCEL.
+- For specific board families: `python3 tools/get_deps.py FAMILY_NAME` (e.g., rp2040, stm32f4)
+- Dependencies are cached in `lib/` and `hw/mcu/` directories
+
+#### Build Examples
+Choose ONE of these approaches:
+
+**Option 1: Individual Example with CMake (RECOMMENDED)**
+```bash
+cd examples/device/cdc_msc
+mkdir -p build && cd build
+cmake -DBOARD=raspberry_pi_pico -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=MinSizeRel ..
+cmake --build . -j4
+```
+-- takes 1-2 seconds. NEVER CANCEL. Set timeout to 5+ minutes.
+
+**CMake with Ninja (Alternative)**
+```bash
+cd examples/device/cdc_msc
+mkdir build && cd build
+cmake -G Ninja -DBOARD=raspberry_pi_pico ..
+ninja
+```
+
+**Option 2: Individual Example with Make**
+```bash
+cd examples/device/cdc_msc
+make BOARD=raspberry_pi_pico all
+```
+-- takes 2-3 seconds. NEVER CANCEL. Set timeout to 5+ minutes.
+
+**Option 3: All Examples for a Board**
+```bash
+python3 tools/build.py -b BOARD_NAME
+```
+-- takes 15-20 seconds, may have some objcopy failures that are non-critical. NEVER CANCEL. Set timeout to 30+ minutes.
+
+#### Build Options
+- **Debug build**:
+ - CMake: `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug`
+ - Make: `DEBUG=1`
+- **With logging**:
+ - CMake: `-DLOG=2`
+ - Make: `LOG=2`
+- **With RTT logger**:
+ - CMake: `-DLOG=2 -DLOGGER=rtt`
+ - Make: `LOG=2 LOGGER=rtt`
+- **RootHub port selection**:
+ - CMake: `-DRHPORT_DEVICE=1`
+ - Make: `RHPORT_DEVICE=1`
+- **Port speed**:
+ - CMake: `-DRHPORT_DEVICE_SPEED=OPT_MODE_FULL_SPEED`
+ - Make: `RHPORT_DEVICE_SPEED=OPT_MODE_FULL_SPEED`
+
+#### Flashing and Deployment
+- **Flash with JLink**:
+ - CMake: `ninja cdc_msc-jlink`
+ - Make: `make BOARD=raspberry_pi_pico flash-jlink`
+- **Flash with OpenOCD**:
+ - CMake: `ninja cdc_msc-openocd`
+ - Make: `make BOARD=raspberry_pi_pico flash-openocd`
+- **Generate UF2**:
+ - CMake: `ninja cdc_msc-uf2`
+ - Make: `make BOARD=raspberry_pi_pico all uf2`
+- **List all targets** (CMake/Ninja): `ninja -t targets`
+
+#### Unit Testing
+- Install Ceedling: `sudo gem install ceedling`
+- Run all unit tests: `cd test/unit-test && ceedling` or `cd test/unit-test && ceedling test:all` -- takes 4 seconds. NEVER CANCEL. Set timeout to 10+ minutes.
+- Run specific test: `cd test/unit-test && ceedling test:test_fifo`
+- Tests use Unity framework with CMock for mocking
+
+#### Documentation
+- Install requirements: `pip install -r docs/requirements.txt`
+- Build docs: `cd docs && sphinx-build -b html . _build` -- takes 2-3 seconds. NEVER CANCEL. Set timeout to 10+ minutes.
+
+#### Code Quality and Validation
+- Format code: `clang-format -i path/to/file.c` (uses `.clang-format` config)
+- Check spelling: `pip install codespell && codespell` (uses `.codespellrc` config)
+- Pre-commit hooks validate unit tests and code quality automatically
+
+#### Static Analysis with PVS-Studio
+- **Analyze whole project**:
+ ```bash
+ pvs-studio-analyzer analyze -f examples/cmake-build-raspberry_pi_pico/compile_commands.json -R .PVS-Studio/.pvsconfig -o pvs-report.log -j12 --dump-files --misra-cpp-version 2008 --misra-c-version 2023 --use-old-parser
+ ```
+- **Analyze specific source files**:
+ ```bash
+ pvs-studio-analyzer analyze -f examples/cmake-build-raspberry_pi_pico/compile_commands.json -R .PVS-Studio/.pvsconfig -S path/to/file.c -o pvs-report.log -j12 --dump-files --misra-cpp-version 2008 --misra-c-version 2023 --use-old-parser
+ ```
+- **Multiple specific files**:
+ ```bash
+ pvs-studio-analyzer analyze -f examples/cmake-build-raspberry_pi_pico/compile_commands.json -R .PVS-Studio/.pvsconfig -S src/file1.c -S src/file2.c -o pvs-report.log -j12 --dump-files --misra-cpp-version 2008 --misra-c-version 2023 --use-old-parser
+ ```
+- Requires `compile_commands.json` in the build directory (generated by CMake with `-DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=ON`)
+- Use `-f` option to specify path to `compile_commands.json`
+- Use `-R .PVS-Studio/.pvsconfig` to specify rule configuration file
+- Use `-j12` for parallel analysis with 12 threads
+- `--dump-files` saves preprocessed files for debugging
+- `--misra-c-version 2023` enables MISRA C:2023 checks
+- `--misra-cpp-version 2008` enables MISRA C++:2008 checks
+- `--use-old-parser` uses legacy parser for compatibility
+- Analysis takes ~10-30 seconds depending on project size. Set timeout to 5+ minutes.
+- View results: `plog-converter -a GA:1,2 -t errorfile pvs-report.log` or open in PVS-Studio GUI
+
+### Validation
+
+#### ALWAYS Run These After Making Changes
+1. **Pre-commit validation** (RECOMMENDED): `pre-commit run --all-files`
+ - Install pre-commit: `pip install pre-commit && pre-commit install`
+ - Runs all quality checks, unit tests, spell checking, and formatting
+ - Takes 10-15 seconds. NEVER CANCEL. Set timeout to 15+ minutes.
+2. **Build validation**: Build at least one example that exercises your changes
+ ```bash
+ cd examples/device/cdc_msc
+ make BOARD=raspberry_pi_pico all
+ ```
+
+#### Manual Testing Scenarios
+- **Device examples**: Cannot be fully tested without real hardware, but must build successfully
+- **Unit tests**: Exercise core stack functionality - ALL tests must pass
+- **Build system**: Must be able to build examples for multiple board families
+
+#### Board Selection for Testing
+- **STM32F4**: `stm32f407disco` - no external SDK required, good for testing
+- **RP2040**: `raspberry_pi_pico` - requires Pico SDK, commonly used
+- **Other families**: Check `hw/bsp/FAMILY/boards/` for available boards

+
+### Code Style Guidelines
+
+#### General Coding Standards
+- Use C99 standard
+- Memory-safe: no dynamic allocation
+- Thread-safe: defer all interrupt events to non-ISR task functions
+- 2-space indentation, no tabs
+- Use snake_case for variables/functions
+- Use UPPER_CASE for macros and constants
+- Follow existing variable naming patterns in files you're modifying
+- Include proper header comments with MIT license
+- Add descriptive comments for non-obvious functions
+
+#### Best Practices
+- When including headers, group in order: C stdlib, tusb common, drivers, classes
+- Always check return values from functions that can fail
+- Use TU_ASSERT() for error checking with return statements
+- Follow the existing code patterns in the files you're modifying
+
+Remember: TinyUSB is designed for embedded systems - builds are fast, tests are focused, and the codebase is optimized for resource-constrained environments.
## Claude Agent Notes (`CLAUDE.md`)
- Default to CMake+Ninja for builds, but align with Make workflows when users rely on legacy scripts; provide DEBUG/LOG/LOGGER knobs consistently.
