MeshService::injectAsReceived (gated by MESHTASTIC_ENABLE_FRAME_INJECTION, off by default) extends
the portduino SimRadio SIMULATOR_APP path to real hardware: a client-supplied frame, wrapped in a
Compressed envelope on the SIMULATOR_APP portnum, is delivered through the real receive pipeline
(router->enqueueReceivedMessage) as if it arrived off the LoRa chip. It therefore exercises from!=0
enforcement, channel/PKC decryption, remote-admin authorization, and hop/dedup/module dispatch -
paths the toRadio API cannot reach (it forces from=0). from==0 is dropped to match real RX.
This forges over-the-air traffic, so the flag must never ship enabled. Drive it with the
meshtastic-mcp inject_frame tool / cli/meshinject.py. Documents the technique in the agent-facing
copilot-instructions.md + AGENTS.md.
The Python MCP server + hardware test harness that lived under mcp-server/
now has its own home at https://github.com/meshtastic/meshtastic-mcp
(published, versioned independently). Remove the in-tree copy and wire the
firmware repo to the standalone server externally.
- Delete mcp-server/ (96 files) and the 8 harness-coupled AI workflow files
under .claude/commands/ and .github/prompts/ that drove ./mcp-server/
run-tests.sh — those workflows now ship with meshtastic-mcp as skills.
- .mcp.json: register the server via
`uvx --from git+https://github.com/meshtastic/meshtastic-mcp meshtastic-mcp`
instead of a local ./mcp-server/.venv, keeping MESHTASTIC_FIRMWARE_ROOT="."
so the MCP tools still work from this checkout with no local build.
- Repoint the remaining references (AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md,
.github/copilot-instructions.md, bin/regen-*.sh, docs, Screen.h,
userPrefs.jsonc, test/fixtures/nodedb/README.md, .trunk/configs/.bandit)
at the standalone repo. The MCP tool surface is unchanged — only the
pytest harness moves out; run it from a meshtastic-mcp checkout with
MESHTASTIC_FIRMWARE_ROOT pointed here.
No build/CI/platformio coupling existed, so nothing in the firmware build
changes.
