I’ll include ring generation, off-hook/on-hook detection, surge protection, and galvanic isolation of both power and audio/control signals between the FXS circuitry and the Pi. The fax machine will connect to a powered FXS port—not a public telephone line—with bidirectional digital audio passed to the Pi for fax processing.
Implementing and verifying this requires Agent mode and an editable copy of this read-only template. Is the fax cable intended for indoor use only, or could it run outdoors or between buildings? That determines the surge-protection and isolation requirements.
What is Agent mode?
Agent mode lets Flux build, do deep research, validate designs, and work through complex assignments.
Chat mode is just as smart and has the same engineering knowledge, but it cannot work autonomously.
Only Agent mode consumes your plan's included AI usage (measured in ACUs).
