rsp2k 607d14979d Tools layer: 16 MCP tools over the three streams
connect/disconnect/status, list_commands/command_info, the generic
send_command, get_state/watch_state/preflight_check, camera snapshot and
record, FTP listing and fetch, the read-only shell, and arm/disarm.

The safety gate is tested exhaustively rather than by sample: every motion
and envelope command is asserted to refuse while unarmed, and Landing and
Emergency are asserted to work without arming, because refusing to bring
down an airborne aircraft is the more dangerous answer.

preflight_check reads the per-element sensor keys, so a single failing
self-test is visible instead of being hidden by whichever arrived last.

mcbebop

An MCP server for the Parrot Bebop 2, so an agent can talk to the drone without anyone writing code for each question.

Parrot abandoned the Bebop line, but the aircraft is still a capable, cheap platform and its protocol is fully described by Parrot's own XML, which this package vendors. Every one of the 264 commands is reachable; nothing is hand-wrapped.

Status: in development. Not flight-tested. See the safety section.

What it talks to

Interface Notes
ARSDK3 over UDP commands and telemetry; this package implements the protocol directly
ARStream2 live H.264 video. The Bebop 2 serves no RTSP, despite what older libraries assume
FTP media, flight plans, blackbox logs
Telnet read-only shell, only after the drone's debug mode is enabled

Safety

Commands are classified by consequence. Observing and configuring are open; anything that can spin a motor or change the flight envelope refuses until arm() is called with a reason, and re-locks on a timer and on disconnect. Landing and Emergency are deliberately never locked, because refusing to land an airborne aircraft is the more dangerous answer.

connect(target="sim") runs everything against a protocol-accurate simulator, which is where anything involving motion should be rehearsed.
