I work with Claude to port games to DOS and build new Classic Macintosh apps [1][2][3] using real hardware. For a while I was doing the SDcard swap thing; but realized with a usb4vc[4] (hands), a vga/hdmi usb capture dongle (eyes/ears), an old Wemo switch (on/off/reboot) and ftp/appleshare (files/logs) I could have Claude do it all for me. Claude made me vcctrl[5] that ties all of it together, including an mcp, skills and a webkvm. 1. https://github.com/ecliptik/doskutsu 2. https://github.com/ecliptik/flynn 3. https://github.com/ecliptik/talkip 4. https://github.com/dekuNukem/USB4VC 5. https://github.com/ecliptik/vcctrl
