Hi, Claude Code struggles to to bring up barebox properly with labgrid-pytest and running barebox on real hardware with the barebox integrated pytest infrastructure is also not easy as there are several assumptions about QEMU in it. I thought letting Claude write a small python tool to start barebox in QEMU. It turned out to be useful for interactive usage as well, so here it is:
https://github.com/saschahauer/barebox-bringup It makes starting barebox as easy as: barebox-bringup -c ~/test/arm/imx6s-riotboard.yaml barebox-bringup -c test/arm/virt@multi_v7_defconfig.yaml It will open a console which captures the barebox output from the start. The tool has options to capture to a log file and to accept input from a fifo. At least with real hardware the closest I could get was: labgrid-client -c ~/test/arm/imx6s-riotboard.yaml -s barebox console This loses output though, as the console is only started after barebox has already started, so I usually had running a permanent console on another terminal. Maybe there are ways to improve the barebox pytest or to improve labgrid itself, but in the meantime somebody might find this useful as well.
