@labwired/mcp

Model Context Protocol server exposing the LabWired deterministic firmware simulator as tools your AI coding agent can call.

LabWired runs ARM Cortex-M / RISC-V / Xtensa firmware against a cycle-accurate, deterministic simulator. This MCP server lets your agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Continue, etc.) verify firmware behaviour without lying to itself — same inputs always produce the same outputs, so the agent can iterate against a real oracle.

What it gives your agent

Tool	What it does
labwired_catalog	List supported chips/boards (filter by name).
labwired_simulate	Run firmware against a test script. Returns result.json + UART log. Deterministic.
labwired_validate_system	Validate a System Manifest YAML before simulating. Fast schema check.

Prerequisites

You need the labwired CLI on your PATH. Install via:

curl -fsSL https://labwired.com/install.sh | sh

Verify with labwired --help.

Install in Claude Code

claude mcp add labwired -- npx -y @labwired/mcp

That's it. Restart Claude Code if the tools don't appear immediately.

Install in Cursor

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "labwired": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@labwired/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Install globally (any MCP client)

npm install -g @labwired/mcp
labwired-mcp   # speaks MCP over stdio

Example agent prompts

Once installed, ask your agent things like:

"My STM32F1 blinky firmware hangs after about 100k cycles. Here's the ELF (base64-encoded) and my system.yaml. Use LabWired to simulate it with a 200k cycle budget and tell me where it stops."

"Generate a System Manifest for the Nucleo-F401RE with UART2 routed to PA2/PA3 at 115200 baud, then validate it with labwired_validate_system before I commit."

"Here are two versions of my ADC interrupt handler. Run each through labwired_simulate against my regression script and tell me which one passes all assertions."

Environment variables

• LABWIRED_CLI — override the CLI binary path. Defaults to labwired on PATH.

Why deterministic matters for agents

Agents that propose firmware fixes hit a fundamental problem: there's no fast, reliable oracle to verify whether a fix actually works. Physical HIL benches are slow and flaky. Best-effort simulators give different results on different runs. LLMs hallucinate "yes I think that fixes it."

LabWired is bit-accurate and reproducible by design: the same firmware + same system config + same test script produce the same result.json every time. The agent can propose, verify, iterate, and trust the answer.

Status

Early MVP (v0.1). Three tools, stdio transport, no auth required for local use (the simulator runs on your machine). Worker-side metering for hosted runs lands in a future version.
