Me Here 15755f4d0c pm-kit: hidden stepper jog/test mode (hold A+B at boot)
Hold both buttons at power-on to enter a self-contained jog screen: the joystick
spins the stepper CW/CCW (speed by deflection), with an on-screen direction
needle + RGB LED feedback. Runs in its own loop; power-cycle to return to normal.

- app.py: _jog_loop drawn entirely in the overlay group (cover + labels + needle);
  Pendulum.spin() does a free half-step either way; _jog set when A+B held in init;
  run() branches to it before the normal loop.
- boot.py: editor mode is now "A alone" (A pressed, B not). A+B stays in appliance
  mode, so the jog chord doesn't also flip the drive writable.

Pure ASCII; conformance 47/47; build precompiles app.mpy.

# boot.py — runs once at power-on (before USB connects); decides who owns the filesystem.
#
# DEFAULT = appliance mode: the FIRMWARE owns the drive, so it can save your practice log to
# /history.json and write /programs.json that the editor pushes over USB-MIDI. The drive is then
# READ-ONLY to the computer — which also protects the firmware from accidental deletion.
#
# HOLD BUTTON A (GP15) ALONE WHILE PLUGGING IN = editor mode: the drive is writable by the computer,
# so you can drag programs.json / code.py on from any OS or browser (the universal fallback). Reset
# afterwards to return to appliance mode.
#
# HOLD BUTTON A + B TOGETHER = the firmware's hidden stepper jog/test mode (app.py). That chord
# stays in appliance mode here (drive NOT flipped writable) so testing doesn't disturb the drive.
#
# Also frees a USB endpoint (disables unused HID) and makes sure USB-MIDI is available.
