production tooling
The designer made a programming jig from pogo pins and JST jumper wires in about an hour and says it worked on every one of the 300 boards. The repository photo shows four pogo pins, matching the four back-side pads labelled GND, SDA, VCC, and SCL on the Revision 1 render, but the programming script and the data written to the boards are not published.

Primary designer source, Unlicense. It calls the repository the badge schematic and board design for BSides Peoria and says the designer worked on it for about a month and a half, built a pogo-pin programming jig, and programmed all 300 boards, and that the programming script was lost. It does not say how or to whom the boards were handed out.
