## Repeatable ESP32 build recipe
From a clean commit, run the recipe in WSL/Linux. It builds the Full repeater
images first, then both small bridges for each selected board, then verifies
and publishes one ZIP per board. Only one PlatformIO process runs at a time;
`build.sh` can clean the shared `.pio/build` tree between Full targets.
```bash
python3 -B scripts/build_esp32_partition_migration.py \
--version v1.17.1.7-halo-keymind-cascade-dev \
--radio-preset usa-cascadia --profile cascade
```
The default builds both currently validated boards. Add `--board heltec-v4`
or `--board xiao-s3-wio` to build one; repeat `--board` for a selected set.
Use `--dry-run` to inspect the command order without building. The resulting
ZIPs appear under `.releases/esp32-expanded-<commit>/packages/`. The recipe
requires a clean checkout so each ZIP identifies the firmware commit it was
built from. It creates files only; it does not flash a device or erase flash.
Other ESP32 boards need a reviewed flash-size/partition plan, exact LoRa OTA
target ID, and board entry before they can be added to this recipe. Matching
flash capacity alone is not enough to claim a package is safe for a board.
