Openly documents that the project was built with Claude (AI assistance), explains the human's role in directing it, and respectfully acknowledges that people with objections to AI-generated code are free not to use it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

AI Disclosure
This project was created with the assistance of Claude, an AI assistant made by Anthropic. The code, documentation, and project structure were generated through a collaborative conversation where the human author described what they wanted to build and guided the design decisions.
What this means in practice
- The code was written by Claude based on requirements and feedback from the author.
- All design choices (hardware, architecture, file format, button behaviour) were directed by the human.
- The author reviewed, tested, and takes responsibility for the final result.
A note for those with objections to AI-generated code
Views on AI in software development vary widely, and that's completely understandable. If you have principled objections to using AI-generated code — whether ethical, philosophical, or practical — please don't feel obligated to use this project. There are no hard feelings, and your position is respected.
This disclosure exists because we believe openness is the right approach. Quietly publishing AI-generated work without saying so feels dishonest. If AI assistance is going to be part of how some people build things, the least we can do is be upfront about it so others can make informed decisions.
Why we used AI
Building embedded systems involves a lot of moving parts — hardware constraints, toolchain setup, firmware architecture, library choices — and AI assistance helped explore and validate those decisions faster than working through them alone. The goal was always a working, readable, well-documented project, not just generated text.
