Enthusiast builds Claude remote control for Amiga 500

Using a small microcontroller attached to the keyboard interface and a video capture card, Claude can type, move the mouse, change disk images, transfer files at about 2 kB/s using an on-screen barcode mechanism, and compile or test 68000 software on real hardware.
