Security

  • Require a token via environment variables (never inline keys in prompts, logs, or commits).
  • Preferred: VESTABOARD_TOKEN
  • Optional legacy fallback: VESTABOARD_RW_KEY

Constraints

  • Flagship Vestaboard layout is 6 rows x 22 cols.
  • Text input is formatted to 6x22 by default (uppercase + word wrap; truncates overflow).

Quick usage (local CLI)

# from repo root
npm install

# Preview formatting only
node scripts/vb.js preview "Hello from Quarterbridge Farm"

# Read current message (JSON)
node scripts/vb.js read

# Write text
node scripts/vb.js write "EGGS READY"

# Write a numeric layout (6x22 array of character codes)
node scripts/vb.js write-layout content/layouts/forest-depth.json

Sample content

  • Numeric layouts live in content/layouts/*.json
  • Human review previews live in content/previews/*.md
