"Context switch (to be implemented in assembly for target architecture)"

There's no asm in the repo so I can only assume this is not something that actually compiles and runs.

Other things that are missing:

- No startup code (stack setup etc.)

- No linker script ("to be created", per makefile comment)

Yeah, I read that note and stopped looking further. I was hoping that maybe the hardware-specific code was in a different project and just wanted to be nice in case. I just don’t get the point of making AI slop out of something like a toy RTOS, which is inherently a learning project more than anything else. There’s nothing even fun about doing it if you won’t even try to get it to run on an STM32 or something.
