README
readme.mdscriptstick
The scriptstick is a versatile scripting device in the form of a usb flash drive. It is very similar to the traditional badusb, but since it uses Lua instead of DuckyScript, it can do so much more than act as a keyboard. The onboard hardware also allows for things like meshtastic. The firmware writen in go with tinygo.
why?
I made this project because i love the form factor of a usb stick, and i felt that a lot of fun could be had by expanding the capabilities of traditional bad usbs to more than just HID. By adding just a couple of hardware components you can make a regular looking usb stick so incredily versatile. Pair this with being able to change function easily through a dip switch and you've got yourself a swiss army knife for computers. (holy phone salesman)
how?
I have compiled a couple examples of what the scriptstick could do (theoretically, since i dont have the device yet):
- badusb (ofc)
- security key where the private keys are stored on an sd card which you could hide somewhere.
- boot a very small OS (in theory)
- IR LED to MOSFET pads + usb otg adapter + android phone + custom app = portable universal tv remote
- meshtastic!!! on the go maybe with an android phone?
- communicate with another scriptstick up to kilometers away!
- sd card to usb adapter (not the fastest)
- not sure if mosfets have any/enough capacitance to make this not work but you could build a pretty shitty mp3 player.
- modify a keyboard with a lora module inside, plug scriptstick into your pc, use your keyboard from kilometers away. (why)

Questions
How big is the Crackedbadusb PCB?
It measures 46.1 × 18.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Crackedbadusb use?
38 parts, built around the RP2040, W25Q128JVSIQ, TF-01A and USBLC6-2SC6. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Crackedbadusb KiCad files?
From the axellse/scriptstick repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/crackedbadusb.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/crackedbadusb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Crackedbadusb design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask axellse before reusing the design.
