SerialBridge — Demo video

SerialBridge is a free desktop app (Windows, macOS, Linux; Tauri 2 + Svelte 5 + Rust) that connects a computer to serial devices such as weighing scales, reads their data, and can forward the stream through a webhook. I built it after connecting a real serial tobacco scale (SONIC A12E) to a CodeIgniter 3 API and a MySQL database at work. In v0.2.4, an AI model helps identify an unknown device and write its parser, but nothing is trusted without proof. A commit gate only accepts the model's answer when the parser actually matches the live data. Safe Mode blocks Modbus writes and asks a person to approve any other write. The model can suggest; a person still decides. Honesty note: the demo uses a virtual practice scale. Two scenes are dramatized: the 14855 kg "naive" value and the Deny approval dialog. In my live tests, the model refused the injected command every time, so the dialog never appeared.
