Picoware - v2.3.0

This release adds on-device C development (run .c files), Infrared support (transmitting/receiving signals), DuckyScript interpreter (execute USB payloads), Video Player (play MJPEG movies), ZipFile support (read/compress/decompress archives), AI Agent upgrades (MCP and Session support), and miscellaneous updates to GUI classes for consistent rendering on all boards.

C Development

Thanks to the creators of the pshell project, you can now run C programs directly on the device. Add your .c files in picoware/c/* on your SD card, then open up the Library, scroll down and click C, then click on a file to run it. Outside of the standard C library, you also have access to lcd methods, so you can create GUIs in C directly. Check out our example: https://github.com/jblanked/Picoware/blob/main/tests/c.py

Infrared Support

Send and receive infrared signals. The Cardputer-ADV and Flipper Zero are the only two supported boards that can transmit signals, and the Flipper Zero is the only supported board that can receive (and save) signals. In the next release, we plan on adding external module support.

Add your .ir files into the infrared folder on your SD card, then open up the Library, scroll down and click Infrared, then either click on Remote, to list and execute files, or Learn to receive and save signals. The parser follows the Flipper Zero format, so your existing libraries are already useable.

DuckyScript

Execute USB payloads using DuckyScript. The only device this (unfortunately) does not support yet is the Flipper Zero, although it mostly follows the extended DuckyScript format from the Flipper Zero community, which has syntax from the USB Rubber Ducky 1.0. Check out our example: https://github.com/jblanked/Picoware/blob/main/tests/ducky.py

Video Player

Play MJPEG videos directly on your device. Add your .mjpeg files to the videos folder on your SD card, then open up the Library, scroll down and click Video Player, then click on a file to play it.

ZipFile

Read, compress, and decompress .zip archives directly on the device. Just open up the File Browser, navigate to a .zip file, and click on it to browse, extract, move, copy, or delete.

AI Agent

The Agent app gets a major upgrade this release. You can now add a JBlanked API key and connect to MCP Servers directly from Settings, giving the agent access to external tools. Conversations are now tracked with a new Session class, and the agent uses your entire conversation history for better context instead of just the last message. We've also added an Agent Thinking toggle in the app's settings, along with new built-in tools (time_get_current_time and storage_info) the agent can call on its own.
