An embeddable Rust crate that encapsulates **USB / BLE connectivity,
auto-reconnect, the HID protocol, mSBC decoding, and USB Audio capture** for
the **ReAI-Vibe-Board** — a voice-first mechanical keyboard built for AI
coding workflows.

## The hardware

A CNC aluminium unibody board with a metal knob and a three-way mode lever.
What the SDK can actually observe:

| Hardware | What you get from the SDK |
|----------|---------------------------|
| Knob (rotate + press) | `KeyPressEvent` — KEY0 / KEY1 encoder phases, KEY2 press |
| 6 physical keys | `KeyPressEvent` KEY3–KEY8; KEY6 is the AI-voice key and also emits `AiVoiceKeyEvent` |
| Three-way mode lever | KEY9 / KEY10 / KEY11 → `ModeChangeEvent` (YOLO / PLAN / CHAT) |
| Microphone | `PcmSink` delivers 16 kHz mono f32 — mSBC over vendor USB HID or BLE, decoded in-Rust (optional feature) |
| USB-C / Bluetooth | Both transports, switched automatically |

The twelve `key_index` slots above cover every input the firmware reports:
three for the knob, six for the keys, three for the lever.

## What it gives you

- **One unified API** for USB and BLE transports — same `BoardDevice`, same
  `BoardEvent` stream, same audio callbacks.
- **Auto hotplug + reconnect** — plug in USB, it takes over BLE; pull USB, BLE
  resumes. No glue code to write.
- **16 kHz mono f32 PCM** delivered through a single `PcmSink::on_pcm` trait —
  the board streams mSBC over vendor USB HID or BLE and the SDK decodes it
  in-Rust (no ffmpeg dependency), without opening an OS audio device. Entirely
  optional: skip it and the system microphone still works as it always did.
- **Typed device commands** — read/write key config, device info, bindings
  blob, silent-record flag, sleep timeout, work mode, factory physical-key
  test (firmware v1.58+), plus a vendor USB-HID DFU path for OTA upgrade
  *and recovery*.
- **Three ways in for events** — `events()` returns an `EventStream`
  (`recv().await` for `tokio::select!`, `blocking_recv()` for plain threads),
  `on_event()` is callback style, and `subscribe()` hands you the raw
  `broadcast::Receiver` if you want to drive it yourself.

> The protocol constants (USB VID/PID, BLE GATT service UUIDs, command opcodes,
> device-name prefix) are tuned for **ReAI-Vibe-Board** hardware. They are not
> generic USB/BLE abstractions.

## Quick start

Add to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
reai-board-sdk = "0.3"
tokio = { version = "1", features = ["rt-multi-thread", "macros", "time", "sync"] }
```

Minimal usage:

```rust
use std::sync::Arc;
use reai_board_sdk::{BoardConfig, BoardDevice, BoardEvent};
use reai_board_sdk::sink::PcmSink;

struct ConsoleSink;
impl PcmSink for ConsoleSink {
    fn on_pcm(&self, samples: &[f32]) {
        // forward to STT / save to disk / draw a waveform — your choice
        let _ = samples;
    }
}

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
    let device = BoardDevice::open(BoardConfig::default())?;

// (Optional) register an audio sink before start()
    device.set_pcm_sink(Arc::new(ConsoleSink));

device.start().await?;  // spawns hotplug + auto-reconnect task

let mut events = device.events();
    while let Ok(Some(evt)) = events.recv().await {
        match evt {
            BoardEvent::Connection(c) => println!("connected={} type={:?}", c.connected, c.connection_type),
            BoardEvent::KeyPress(k)   => println!("key {} {} pressed={}", k.key_index, k.key_name, k.pressed),
            BoardEvent::AiVoiceKey(a) => println!("AI voice pressed={}", a.pressed),
            BoardEvent::ModeChange(m) => println!("mode {}", m.mode),
            _ => {}
        }
    }
    device.shutdown();
    Ok(())
}
```

## Flutter / iOS / Android

Mobile apps must not embed the desktop `btleplug` / `hidapi` runtime. This
repository now includes [`flutter/reai_board_sdk`](flutter/reai_board_sdk), a
Flutter BLE package that keeps the same typed command, event, reconnect and
board-audio lease semantics while using `flutter_blue_plus` for CoreBluetooth
and Android GATT.

```yaml
dependencies:
  reai_board_sdk:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/ReAI-com/reai-board-sdk.git
      path: flutter/reai_board_sdk
```

The mobile package supports FE60–FE63 scanning/connection, device info, key
configuration, key/knob/mode events, common settings, audio capability/lease
control, and raw versioned or legacy mSBC frames. USB, DFU, factory commands,
and bindings-blob transfer are not presented as mobile capabilities.

The Flutter package deliberately does **not** bundle the LGPL mSBC decoder into
the MIT mobile library. It exposes encoded frames and continuity metadata for a
Host-selected decoder. See the [Flutter README](flutter/reai_board_sdk/README.md)
for permissions, background reconnect limits, API parity, and the real-device
checklist. Shared Rust/Dart golden vectors prevent protocol byte drift.

## Supported platforms

| OS      | Status | Notes                                                          |
|---------|--------|----------------------------------------------------------------|
| macOS   | Verified in CI | `hidapi` uses `macos-shared-device`                    |
| Linux   | Builds in CI   | Needs `libdbus-1-dev libudev-dev libasound2-dev pkg-config`; `udev` rules may be needed for raw HID |
| Windows | Expected to work, **not yet verified** | WinUSB / Zadig driver for raw HID access |
| iOS     | Flutter CI verified; hardware pending | Flutter package, CoreBluetooth BLE only |
| Android | Flutter CI verified; hardware pending | Flutter package, Android GATT only |

The three desktop transports (USB HID, USB Audio, BLE GATT) apply to macOS,
Linux and Windows. iOS and Android use the separate Flutter BLE package and do
not expose USB. Windows and mobile hardware have no real-device CI yet; treat
them as automated-build coverage, not physical acceptance.

`ble` uses `btleplug` 0.12 (native async). First `start()` may take ~40 s on
macOS while CoreBluetooth warms up its adapter — this is the OS, not the SDK.

### OS permissions

The SDK **never simulates or injects keyboard input** — it reads from the
device and sends it commands. That has two consequences:

- **No Accessibility / Input Monitoring required** in principle. The board's keys
  flow over vendor HID `0xFFA0` / consumer `0x000C`, not standard keyboard
  Usage `0x0007`. macOS may still prompt — authorize if it does.
- **No microphone permission** on the board-audio path. From firmware v1.59 the
  board's own mic arrives over vendor USB HID / BLE GATT as ordinary device data,
  so the SDK does not enumerate or open a CoreAudio / WASAPI input device.
  `start_usb_uac_compat()` is the one route that goes through the OS audio stack
  and therefore the one route that can raise the microphone prompt.

**macOS Bluetooth does prompt.** Creating the CoreBluetooth adapter triggers
the system authorization dialog, so the SDK defers adapter creation until BLE
is actually needed — you will see the prompt on the first
`scan_ble_devices()` / BLE connect, not at `start()`.

Note that device commands are not read-only: `write_key_config()`,
`set_sleep_timeout()`, `shutdown_device()` and `start_dfu_upgrade()` all change
device state. See [Security notes](#security-notes).

## Features

| Feature            | What it pulls in                                         | Default? |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------|----------|
| `usb`              | `hidapi 2.6` (USB HID) + `cpal 0.15` (USB Audio capture) + `msbc-decoder` | ✅       |
| `ble`              | `btleplug 0.12` (BLE GATT) + `futures-util` + `msbc-decoder` | ✅       |
| `virtual-mic`      | no new deps (macOS needs `cmake` at build time; Windows needs a WDK-built driver package at runtime) | ❌       |
| `test-mode`        | Factory test commands (e.g. `shutdown_device(0x5E)`)     | ❌       |

Board audio is mSBC on every transport, so both transport features pull in the
`msbc-decoder` crate — see [License](#license). `default-features = false`
gives you the protocol layer alone.

`BoardDeviceBlocking` needs no feature flag — it ships with `usb` or `ble`.

`test-mode` is opt-in. Enable it only for trusted factory or production-test
tools that need physical-key test events or device shutdown commands.

To use only the protocol layer with no hardware deps:

```toml
reai-board-sdk = { version = "0.3", default-features = false, features = ["test-mode"] }
```

### Rust version

`rust-version = "1.87"` (uses `usize::is_multiple_of` in a couple of hot-path code sites and examples).

---

## Architecture

```
                    BoardDevice (high-level API: open / start / subscribe)
                          │
            ┌─────────────┴─────────────┐
            ▼                           ▼
       HotplugManager              (USB) UsbAudioCapture
   (USB + BLE auto-connect /           │ cpal UAC → PcmSink (f32)
    auto-reconnect)                    │
            │
   ┌────────┼────────────────┐
   ▼        ▼                ▼
 HidMonitor  KeyStateAggregator  VendorGattClient
 (Config / Consumer parser)     (BLE GATT: scan / connect / notify)
   │                          │           │
   └──────── broadcast::Sender<BoardEvent> ┘
                    │
              Consumers subscribe()
```

**Event decoupling**: every internal module reports through one
`broadcast::Sender<BoardEvent>`. The high-frequency audio stream uses a
separate `AudioFrameSink` / `PcmSink` trait so semantic events are never
drowned out by 16 kHz PCM frames.

### Four-layer split

| Layer       | Module path                          | Purpose                                                                 |
|-------------|--------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `kernel`    | `protocol_hid` / `protocol_gatt` / `event` / `sink` / `msbc` / `key_aggregator` / `types` / `error` | Pure logic. No threads, no I/O.                                         |
| `runtime`   | `device` / `hotplug` / `usb` / `ble` / `usb_capture` | tokio async orchestration (lifecycle / hotplug / USB / BLE I/O). |
| `facade`    | `device` / `events` / `blocking`     | `BoardDevice` high-level entry point, the three event entry points, and the sync command bridge. |
| `tool`      | `parse` / `msbc_file`                | I/O-aware helpers (parse device info from HID buffer, decode mSBC file). |

`runtime` and `facade` require at least one of `usb` / `ble`. With both off,
only `kernel` and `tool` are available — useful for embedding the protocol
layer without any hardware dependency.

---

## Events (`BoardEvent`)

A single enum — one `match` covers everything:

```rust
pub enum BoardEvent {
    Connection(ConnectionEvent),   // connect / disconnect (with reason)
    Reconnect(ReconnectEvent),     // reconnect-state machine changes
    KeyPress(KeyPressEvent),       // single key down / up
    ComboKey(ComboKeyEvent),       // multi-key combo (≥2 keys held simultaneously)
    AiVoiceKey(AiVoiceKeyEvent),   // physical "AI voice" key (key #6)
    ModeChange(ModeChangeEvent),   // dial switch: YOLO / PLAN / CHAT
    DeviceInfo(DeviceInfo),        // info read on demand or polled
    Error(ErrorEvent),             // non-fatal (e.g. single-command timeout)
    #[cfg(feature = "test-mode")]
    FactoryKey(FactoryKeyEvent),   // factory physical-key test event (firmware v1.58+)
}
```

Each variant is `#[derive(Serialize)]` with `#[serde(tag = "type")]` so it
serializes naturally to a JSON envelope if you need to forward events to a
WebSocket bridge or another process.

---

## Audio

Board audio is **optional**. Ignore this whole section and you still get key
events, the mode lever, the knob and every device command — plus the ordinary
system microphone, or whatever third-party dictation tool your users already
run. Nothing else in the SDK depends on it.

### Sinks

```rust
pub trait PcmSink: Send + Sync {
    fn on_pcm(&self, samples: &[f32]);                // 16 kHz mono f32
}

pub trait AudioFrameSink: Send + Sync {
    fn on_audio_frame(&self, frame: AudioFrame<'_>);  // same PCM + transport & continuity metadata
}
```

`AudioFrame` carries the decoded samples together with the transport they
arrived on, a connection epoch, the on-wire packet sequence and three
independent loss signals (`device_discontinuity`, `sequence_gap_frames`,
`local_drop_frames`). `frame.discontinuity()` is true when any of them fired —
use it to reset your own VAD / decoder state instead of guessing from timing.

`CountingSink` is a built-in `PcmSink` / `AudioFrameSink` for frame and byte
statistics. `EncodedAudioDecoderSink` is the decoder the SDK puts in front of
your sink — it turns versioned mSBC packets into `AudioFrame`s, it does not
implement the sink traits itself. `set_pcm_sink()` accepts `Arc<dyn PcmSink>`;
call it before `start().await`.

### Where the audio comes from

From firmware v1.59 the board streams its own mic over the **vendor transports**
— USB Vendor HID or BLE GATT — as ordinary device data. No OS audio device is
opened, so no microphone permission is involved:

```rust
use reai_board_sdk::kernel::audio::resolve_audio_transport;
use reai_board_sdk::{AudioRouteRequest, AudioStreamScope};

let caps = device.query_audio_capabilities().await?;          // 0x6E feature bits
let transport = resolve_audio_transport(
    AudioRouteRequest::BoardFirst,
    device.connection(),
    &caps,
).ok_or_else(|| anyhow::anyhow!("no vendor audio transport on this firmware"))?;

device.start_board_audio(transport, AudioStreamScope::Session, lease_id, ttl_ms).await?;
```

- `AudioRouteRequest::BoardFirst` resolves strictly against the capability bits
  the device reported. If neither vendor transport is available it fails loudly —
  it never silently falls back to a host microphone.
- Capabilities are read as **feature bits**, not as "firmware is new enough".
- `start_board_audio()` takes a lease (`Session` or `Timeline`) with a TTL;
  `control_audio_stream()` renews it with `AudioStreamAction::Heartbeat`.
- `start_usb_uac_compat()` is the compatibility route for older firmware. It
  goes through the OS audio stack, so it is explicit, opt-in, and the only route
  that can raise the microphone prompt.

**UAC stereo (dual-mic firmware v1.72+).** The stereo firmware enumerates its
UAC device as 16 kHz/2ch and streams raw interleaved `[L,R]`.
`start_usb_uac_compat()` still delivers 16 kHz mono to your `PcmSink`
(downmixed, contract unchanged) and now selects the 2ch config explicitly
instead of falling into the macOS `default_input_config` cache trap. For
research and troubleshooting you can additionally dump the pre-downmix
interleaved samples to a PCM16 WAV:

```rust
device.set_uac_stereo_wav_path(Some("uac_stereo.wav".into())); // before start_usb_uac_compat()
device.start_usb_uac_compat()?;
// ... later
device.stop_local_audio_reader(); // flushes the raw WAV
```

Samples buffer in memory (~128 KB/s) and are written once on stop — fine for
short captures, not for hour-long recordings. Legacy mono firmware keeps
working unchanged. See `examples/uac_capture.rs`.

### Virtual microphone (macOS / Windows, `virtual-mic`)

Over BLE the board gets no audio device — the link is a custom GATT service,
not HFP/A2DP, so the OS Bluetooth stack ignores it. The `virtual-mic` feature
closes that gap: the SDK ships a CoreAudio HAL plugin (sources under
`virtual-mic/`, with vendored [libASPL](https://github.com/gavv/libASPL), MIT)
that registers a 16 kHz mono input device **"ReAI-Vibe-Board"** and a `VirtualMic`
`PcmSink` that pumps decoded board PCM into it over loopback UDP. After that,
System Settings and every app can select the board microphone directly.

**Startup switch** (recommended): flip it in `BoardConfig` and the SDK manages
the lifecycle; PCM is delivered in parallel with any `PcmSink` you set yourself:

```rust
use reai_board_sdk::virtual_mic::VirtualMicConfig;

let device = BoardDevice::open(BoardConfig {
    virtual_mic: VirtualMicConfig {
        enabled: true,
        // request install (admin prompt) when the driver is missing;
        // false = warn and skip, install yourself via VirtualMic::ensure_installed()
        auto_install: true,
    },
    ..Default::default()
})?;
device.start().await?;
```

Or take manual control instead (`auto_install: false`, or skip the switch
entirely):

```rust
use std::sync::Arc;
use reai_board_sdk::virtual_mic::VirtualMic;

if !VirtualMic::is_installed() {
    VirtualMic::ensure_installed()?;   // one-time; shows an admin password prompt
}
device.set_pcm_sink(Arc::new(VirtualMic::start()?));
```

Notes (all verified on macOS 26):

- Building the feature requires `cmake` (`brew install cmake`); the driver is a
  universal arm64 + x86_64 binary. The feature is off by default and does not
  affect other users' builds.
- The driver ships **ad-hoc signed** — enough to load on the build machine. The
  SDK does not sign on your behalf: product developers distributing it should
  sign with **their own** Developer ID certificate by setting the
  `REAI_VIRTUAL_MIC_CODESIGN_ID` environment variable at build time (e.g.
  `REAI_VIRTUAL_MIC_CODESIGN_ID="Developer ID Application: Your Name" cargo build ...`),
  or build `virtual-mic/driver` with cmake directly and pass `CODESIGN_ID`.
- Install happens once (copies the bundle into `/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/`
  and restarts coreaudiod); BLE reconnects need no reinstall, and the device
  presents silence while nothing is pumped.
- **Apps reading the device follow the normal macOS microphone-permission
  flow.** Caveat: bare `AVAudioEngine` never raises the prompt, and an
  unpermitted reader gets **silence, not an error** — do not mistake that for a
  broken device; ordinary GUI apps (QuickTime, Voice Memos, ...) prompt
  normally.
- Quality ceiling is 16 kHz mono (BLE mSBC bandwidth); the OS converts sample
  rates for apps automatically.
- In a BLE-only scenario the SDK deliberately does not auto-connect by name
  prefix (avoids grabbing the wrong board in multi-device environments): call
  `scan_ble_devices()` then `connect_ble(name)` — see
  `examples/virtual_mic_demo.rs` for the full flow.

**Windows (development mode):** Windows has no user-mode virtual-audio API, so
the board microphone rides on a small kernel driver derived from Microsoft's
MIT-licensed [SimpleAudioSample](https://github.com/microsoft/Windows-driver-samples/tree/main/audio/simpleaudiosample)
(PortCls/WaveRT): a capture-only 16 kHz mono endpoint named **"ReAI-Vibe-Board"**,
fed by user-mode writes to the control device `\\.\ReAIVibeBoardVirtualMic`
(the Windows `VirtualMic` writes there instead of UDP; inside the driver a
bounded ring turns underflow into silence and drops — never buffers — on
overflow). The same `VirtualMicConfig` switch, `ensure_installed()` /
`start()` API and `PcmSink` contract apply unchanged.

Notes for Windows:

- The driver lives in `virtual-mic/driver-windows/` and must be built with the
  Windows Driver Kit: `scripts/build-driver-windows.ps1 -TestSign` locally, or
  grab the test-signed artifact from the repo's `driver-windows` CI workflow.
- Point `REAI_VIRTUAL_MIC_DRIVER_DIR` at the package directory (`.inf` + `.cat`
  + `.sys` together). `VirtualMic::ensure_installed()` runs
  `pnputil /add-driver <inf> /install` elevated (UAC prompt). Unloading again:
  `VirtualMic::uninstall()`.
- Loading a **test-signed** build additionally requires test signing mode
  (`bcdedit /set TESTSIGNING ON` + reboot) and importing the generated
  `testsign.cer` into Trusted Root + Trusted Publishers. Creating certificates
  and signing binaries is deliberately not done by the SDK. Production
  distribution needs EV code-signing plus Microsoft Partner Center attestation
  signing — tracked as a separate phase of issue #11.
- 16 kHz mono is the device's native rate; the Windows audio engine resamples
  for apps. Quality ceiling is the same BLE mSBC constraint as on macOS.
- In sound settings and device pickers the endpoint shows as
  **"麦克风阵列 (ReAI-Vibe-Board)"** (Windows prefixes the localized node
  category); match by the `ReAI-Vibe-Board` substring, same as on macOS.
- Windows flips install-time default-device policy slightly: check
  `Settings → System → Sound → Input` after the first install and pick the
  mic you actually want as default; the driver cannot suppress default-device
  candidacy the way the macOS build does.

---

## Device commands

All command methods are `async` on `BoardDevice` and sync on
`BoardDeviceBlocking`. They auto-pick USB HID or BLE GATT transport based on
the current connection.

**Device info & work mode**

```rust
device.read_device_info().await?;   // CMD 0x13: mode / MAC / firmware / battery / chip_id
device.get_work_mode().await?;      // CMD 0x12 + 0xC9 — reads the lever's current position
```

**Key configuration**

```rust
device.read_key_config().await?;          // CMD 0x15
device.write_key_config(&config).await?;  // CMD 0x16
```

**Bindings blob** — a 4 KB application-defined config block persisted on the
keyboard, transferred in fragments with a CRC16 check. `BlobRead` distinguishes
*never written* (safe to initialize silently) from *written but corrupt* (raise
it to the user — never overwrite blindly), and reports `Unsupported` on older
firmware that does not answer these commands.

```rust
device.read_bindings_blob().await?;         // CMD 0x69
device.write_bindings_blob(&payload).await?; // CMD 0x6A — payload ≤ 3830 bytes
```

**Power & sleep**

```rust
device.get_silent_record().await?;      // CMD 0x61 (firmware v1.41+)
device.set_silent_record(true).await?;  // CMD 0x62 — returns the effective value
device.get_sleep_timeout().await?;      // CMD 0x63 (firmware v1.51+, idle / connected seconds)
device.set_sleep_timeout(SleepTimeout::new(120, 900)).await?;  // CMD 0x64
device.notify_app_online(true).await?;  // CMD 0x65 (firmware v1.53+)
device.get_app_online().await?;         // CMD 0x66
device.get_open_url().await?;           // CMD 0x67
device.set_open_url("https://…").await?; // CMD 0x68
device.shutdown_device(true).await?;    // CMD 0x5E (test-mode only)
```

**BLE connection management**

```rust
device.scan_ble_devices(timeout).await?;  // list nearby boards
device.connect_ble("REAI_VB_XXXX");       // target a specific one
device.disconnect_ble().await?;
device.disconnect().await?;               // CMD 0x60 — ask the device to drop the link
```

**Firmware upgrade & recovery** — the DFU path is USB-only.

```rust
device.start_dfu_upgrade(path, |p| { /* progress */ }).await?;
device.cancel_dfu_upgrade();              // aborts within one ≤250 B transfer cycle

// If a board is left stranded in DFU mode (e.g. the host died mid-upgrade):
if device.is_stuck_in_dfu().await? {
    device.recover_from_dfu().await?;     // kicks it back to normal mode
}
```

`recover_from_dfu()` only touches the staging partition, never the main
application partition — it cannot brick a device that is already stuck.

**Factory physical-key test** (`test-mode`, firmware v1.58+) — a 15-second
lease; renew every 5 s and release explicitly.

```rust
device.set_factory_key_test(true, session).await?;  // CMD 0x6C; events arrive as 0x6D
```

## Examples

Run from the crate root:

```sh
cargo run --example usb_probe        # USB HID + USB Audio
cargo run --example ble_probe        # BLE scan + connect + audio + keys
cargo run --example ble_scan         # BLE diagnosis: list every advertising device
cargo run --example device_demo      # read device info / key config / round-trip write
cargo run --example listen_demo      # both event facade flavors side-by-side
cargo run --example uac_capture      # UAC compat capture: levels + optional mono/stereo WAV dumps
cargo run --release --features virtual-mic --example virtual_mic_demo   # BLE → system-level virtual mic
```

All examples need a board connected; they print events to stdout. Add
`--features test-mode` when you also need factory physical-key events.

## Security notes

This crate has **no built-in authentication or transport-layer encryption**. If
you build a service that exposes the device commands over a network, you are
responsible for:

- binding only to `127.0.0.1` (or a Unix socket) on the host that owns the
  hardware;
- putting a reverse proxy with TLS + token authentication in front of any
  remote surface;
- rate-limiting the DFU endpoint (`start_dfu_upgrade` will reflash the device —
  it is **not** idempotent).

`shutdown_device()` and `start_dfu_upgrade()` are destructive. There is no
second-factor prompt — whoever can call them owns the device.

`write_key_config()` and `write_bindings_blob()` are not destructive but they
**persist on the keyboard**: a bad write survives reboots and unplugging, and
recovering means writing known-good data back. Read before you write, and treat
a `BlobRead` that comes back corrupt as a prompt for the user rather than a
licence to overwrite.

## License

One caveat worth reading before you ship:

The `ble` feature pulls in [`msbc-decoder`](msbc-decoder/), a separate crate in
this repository that decodes the mSBC audio arriving over BLE. That decoder is
a bit-exact translation of FFmpeg's `libavcodec/sbcdec.c`, so it inherits
FFmpeg's licence and is distributed under **LGPL-2.1-or-later**, not MIT.

It lives in its own crate precisely so the boundary is explicit:

| Your build | mSBC decoder compiled in? | Effective licence |
|------------|---------------------------|-------------------|
| `default-features = false` (protocol only — keys, commands, DFU) | no | MIT |
| `features = ["usb"]` — USB HID + board audio | **yes** | MIT + LGPL-2.1-or-later |
| `features = ["ble"]` or default | **yes** | MIT + LGPL-2.1-or-later |

The board sends its mic as mSBC on **every** transport, so both `usb` and `ble`
pull the decoder in. The LGPL-free build is the protocol layer on its own.

That is a smaller trade-off than it looks, because **board audio is an optional
feature, not a dependency**. Turn it off and the keyboard still does everything
else: key mapping, the mode lever, the knob, device configuration, DFU. Your
users keep their system microphone and can pair the board with any dictation
tool they already use — including alongside your product. Nothing breaks.
