Arduino benches simulated in the browser: sessions, sketch push, simulation, tests, challenges. Connect the official Picodev Lab MCP server to Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor through gate — one gateway URL, no config files, security-checked.
Free to start · No credit card · No hosting needed
Pick your client. Copy, paste, done — or let gate handle sign-ins and policies for you.

Real prompts you can type the moment it's connected — no setup, no docs to read.
“Use “decode_capture”: Decode a ready logic capture of the session (browser or bench). protocol "uart" with channels {rx} and options {baud (300-1000000, 9600).”
“Use “list_setups”: The setups: status available (open_session works) or soon (listed, cannot be opened yet), their modes (free, challenge) and their benche.”
“Use “open_session”: Create a session (mode: free or challenge). Give open_url to the human: nothing simulates until they open it in their browser.”
“Use “push_to_editor”: Replace the code in the human's browser and, if run, compile it in the lab's cloud and start it. The fallback of push_program: use it on.”
Every server in the gate directory has to pass the same four checks before your AI can touch it. Here's how Picodev Lab holds up.
Operated by Picodev Lab (picodev.fr) at its documented MCP endpoint — not a third-party mirror or community re-host.
This server only exposes public data — no account and no credentials are involved when you connect.
gate checks every tool for prompt injection, hidden instructions, data-exfiltration hints, and over-broad permissions before the server is available through your gateway.
If Picodev Lab adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.
Add one gateway URL to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client. One-time setup, about two minutes.
Choose Picodev Lab in the gate directory. No sign-in needed.
Picodev Lab's tools are live in every AI client you've connected — with rules and logging built in.

Fetched live from the official endpoint and re-checked daily by gate — not marketing copy.

push_program — Send a program compiled on the visitor's machine (Intel HEX text, 48 KiB at most, e.g. arduino-cli's <sketch>.ino.hex) to the human's br
read_simulation — Last state (with circuit, the browser's components and wires), last compilation and the events after since_ms (2000 at most). `serial` i
set_visibility — Change the visibility (private, link, public). Returns the viewer link; current viewers are disconnected.
queue_join — Take a place in the queue for benches of this kind (for example real or sim). The browser must be connected.

https://lab.picodev.fr/mcpYes — Picodev Lab operates its own remote MCP server at lab.picodev.fr. gate connects you to that official endpoint and adds security scanning, per-tool access rules, and an activity log on top.
Add gate's gateway URL to your AI client once, then pick Picodev Lab in the directory. No account or sign-in is needed. From then on, Picodev Lab's tools are available in every client you've connected to gate.
No. Picodev Lab runs the server, and gate is fully managed. You just connect one URL — there's nothing to install, deploy, or maintain.
It's the vendor's official endpoint, and gate scans its tools for prompt injection and hidden instructions before it goes live, re-checks it whenever it changes, and lets you allow, block, or require approval for every single tool.
Yes — you can get started with gate for free and connect Picodev Lab in minutes. No credit card required.
Every server below works through the same gateway URL — connect once, add tools anytime.
