pio-remote: Start a new Remote Agent with a specific name and share it with friends.
$ pio remote agent start --name ${agent_name} --share ${example1@example-com} --share ${example2@example-com}
try on your machine

This command is used to start a remote agent in the PlatformIO (PIO) development platform. The remote agent allows you to remotely build and upload firmware to your device.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

pio remote agent start - This is the main command to start the remote agent.

--name ${agent_name} - This option specifies the name of the remote agent. ${agent_name} is a placeholder that should be replaced with the desired name for the agent.

--share ${example1@example-com} - This option is used to share a project with the remote agent. ${example1@example-com} is a placeholder that should be replaced with the URL or path of the project you want to share. The project will be accessible to the remote agent for building and uploading.

--share ${example2@example-com} - This is another --share option, allowing you to share multiple projects with the remote agent. ${example2@example-com} should be replaced with the URL or path of the second project you want to share.

By using this command, you start a remote agent with a specified name and share one or more projects with it. The agent will then be able to remotely perform firmware-related tasks on the shared projects.
