Deploy steps
- Gather what you need
Have one reTerminal E1002, a USB data cable, a desktop computer with Chrome or Edge, Wi-Fi with internet access, and the Muse app signed in to your own Muse account. Obtain your Muse SDK token from gadgets.muse.ai using that account. Keep it available for the flashing page's personal-token prompt.
- Flash Kid Board firmware
Connect the E1002 to your computer with a USB data cable and use the firmware tool below to install Kid Board; allow the browser to use the board's USB port. When the write finishes, restart the E1002 (press its reset button, or switch it off and on) so it leaves flashing mode. Then enter your own Muse SDK token when the page asks; the device stores it and restarts. Continue to pairing after the token step.
Flash firmware to your device (in-app tool on CodeCraft Hub).
- Pair the board in Muse
In the Muse app, add the nearby MuseGadget-Disp-… , enter your Wi-Fi details and press the E1002's Green button to confirm pairing. Continue once Muse connects to this gadget. If you own several gadgets, identify this E1002 in your chat before asking Muse to change its board.
- Install the Muse skill once
Open SKILL.md , copy its full text into your Muse chat and ask Muse to remember it for your E1002 Kid Board. Install it once; send the full skill again after it changes. This teaches Muse how to edit the plan, handle completion notices and follow your family's star rules.
Tell Muse the child's display name, local time zone, caregivers allowed to give stars, daily star cap and agreed reward. For example: “Set up Mia's Kid Board. Grandma and I may give up to three stars a day; five stars earns a park picnic.” Muse uses these details to set the clock and remember the agreement. Ask it to read the board's current state to check the connection and time settings.
- Plan a day and confirm a step
Say to Muse: “Plan Mia's day: brush teeth in 5 minutes, dress in 10, breakfast in 15; 2 stars, goal 5, reward park.” The board shows the dated timeline, two stars and the reward. This request and its screen layout were checked on one E1002.
After pairing is complete, a short press of Green confirms the highlighted step. The checked device beeped, marked the step and sent a completion notice that Muse reported to the owner. The highlight selects the latest due unfinished step, or the next step today when none is due. Allow the e-paper screen time to redraw, and leave at least two seconds between accepted presses.
Other supported requests include:
“Swimming is cancelled today; piano at 4 instead, Grandpa picks her up.” Muse reads the current plan and sends a complete replacement that retains the other activities.
“Mia finished her homework, give her a star.” Muse checks your caregiver agreement and daily cap, reads the current total and updates the star chart.
“What did Mia confirm today? How many stars does she have?” Muse reads the board's current plan and star progress.
“Undo that completion.” Muse identifies the intended step and corrects its completion remotely.
These additional reque…
- Check operating limits and validation
Keep the plan to ten items and screen labels short in English/ASCII with supported punctuation. The board stores one dated plan: sending tomorrow's plan replaces the visible list immediately, and Green can confirm it on its own date. The last plan repeats on following days until Muse replaces it. Stars carry across days; the goal supports 1–20 stars, with totals up to 999.
The measured full colour refresh took about 26 seconds; allow roughly 30 seconds. Firmware combines nearby changes and spaces redraw starts at least 60 seconds apart, so the picture may lag behind saved state. Ask Muse for current facts while it refreshes. On one E1002, the latest recorded idle check showed one redraw on boot restore and none during the next 4.5 minutes.
Completion notices depend on connectivity and power. Recent event history holds up to 32 notices in temporary memory; weekly reviews need Muse's saved daily records. A completion notice records a button press. Muse manages caregiver permissions, daily caps and reward agreements.
The 2026-11-05 hardware record covers one E1002 paired over Wi-Fi, plan/star/reward display, Green confirmation and the idle-refresh observation. Next-item timed redraw, th…
