## Description
SOTA 2026 Yahboom Raspbot v2 ROS 2 MCP Server

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "yahboom-mcp": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","yahboom-mcp"]
  }
}
```

## Quick Start

```powershell
git clone https://github.com/sandraschi/yahboom-mcp
cd yahboom-mcp
just
```

This opens an interactive dashboard showing all available commands. Run `just bootstrap` to install dependencies, then `just serve` or `just dev` to start.

### Manual Setup

If you don't have `just` installed:

## Overview

**Boomy** is a **Yahboom Raspbot v2** (Mecanum Version) robot car. Weighing in at approximately **1.0 kg** and costing roughly **$300** (fully loaded with a Raspberry Pi 5 16GB), it provides a unified platform for testing sensor integration, ROS 2 orchestration, and agentic (AI-driven) robotics. It's also great fun for kids of all ages.

### The Manufacturer: Yahboom
[Yahboom](https://www.yahboom.net/) is a prominent player in the Chinese robotics and STEM education industry. They offer a diverse range of hardware platforms:
*   **Market Range**: From entry-level $50 DIY kits to advanced $2,000+ STEM robots with precision mechanical arms.
*   **Industry Position**: They specialize in accessible hardware for education and prototyping, positioned below enterprise-grade platforms such as Unitree or Noetix.
*   **Developer Ecosystem**: Yahboom maintains a strong commitment to a **FOSS (Free and Open Source Software)** stack and provides active GitHub support for developers.

## 🏗️ Hardware Architecture

Boomy utilizes a "Double-Stack" controller model to bridge real-time physical reliability with high-level cognitive tasks:

1.  **Rosmaster (ESP32 / Micro-ROS)**: Small-form-factor hardware controller for low-latency motor control, ultrasonic pinging, and line-sensor processing.
2.  **Raspberry Pi 5 (Optional / Gateway)**: The main brain for standalone operation.

### 🚀 The "Zero-Host" Swarm Config
For scaled deployments, Boomy can operate in a **Pi-less Swarm** mode:
- **Setup**: Remove the Raspberry Pi; replace with a WiFi-to-Ethernet/UART bridge ($15).
- **Control**: Centralized orchestration via a remote **Mothership** (PC with RTX 4090).
- **Scaling**: Deploy 3+ units for the price of a single Pi-hosted robot.

## 🕹️ Interface Separation

This project clearly distinguishes between human-operable controls and machine-optimized interfaces:

*   **Human Interface**: A browser-based **Web Dashboard** (React/Vite) designed for manual telemetry observation, peripheral control (lights, OLED), and human-robot interaction.
*   **Machine Interface**: A standards-compliant **MCP Server** (Model Context Protocol) designed for AI agents and MCP clients to programmatic control Boomy as a tool within a larger fleet.

### Webapp status surfaces

- **Dashboard (`/dashboard`)** — First page: basic **robot link** (gateway, target IP, ROS · SSH · video) and operator hints when the Raspbot is off or Goliath has no AP/Ethernet path.
- **Diagnostic Hub (`/diagnostics`)** — Detail: ROS topic explorer, node list, resync / hard reset, SSH shell, **stack health** table (same **`stack`** payload as the dashboard when available).
- **Server logs (`/logs`)** — Live **yahboom-mcp** log stream (SSE) on Goliath.
