Issue dossier

The repository documents source, a `thermometer-v1.1.0.uf2` file, and manufacturing tools under WTFPL v2, but does not provide a signed/hash-verified marketplace release, exact build provenance for every event unit, dependency-license audit, release/support policy, changelog-to-hardware mapping, security review, recovery guarantee, or field-test result. Its note that firmware was developed with Claude is source provenance, not an independent quality or authorship assessment.

A linkable camp-impact record with badge context, severity, evidence confidence, and source notes.

public hardware and firmware repository

BCCC Temperature SAO source repository

Public `aerospace-venoms` source tree for the BCCC Temperature SAO. Its README documents the BCCC/DEF CON 2026 connection, RP2350A/W25Q16/DS18B20/display/USB-C/SWD hardware, dual-core Pico-SDK firmware, KiCad tree, UF2, build/flash guidance, batch programming, and soak-test tools. It is a public technical source, not proof that every marketplace unit carries the same revision or a reusable-image grant.

public software and hardware license declaration

BCCC Temperature SAO license

Root license file declaring WTFPL v2 and copyright by Ames Evans. The file says firmware was developed with Claude.
