rsp2k 6f2c36936e Keep every element of a list-shaped event
17 events are MAP_ITEM or LIST_ITEM: they arrive once per element, all
carrying the same argument names, so a flat store kept only whichever landed
last. SensorsStatesListChanged reports six sensors that way, and the
simulator's deliberate magnetometer fault was invisible through state() as a
result, which is exactly the fact preflight_check needs to see.

Entries are now keyed Command[element]_arg. Parrot marks these events but
never names the key; it is the first argument by convention.

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.
