Co-locate the two cockpit-pod projects into a single repository:
- Console/ : TeslaConsole, the net48 WinForms operator console (decompiled
reconstruction) plus its differential + catalog test suite.
- Launcher/ : TeslaLauncher, the net6 pod-side Service + Agent rewrite.
Adds a combined TeslaSuite.sln, root README documenting the shared wire
contract (and its current duplication, the main follow-up), and a root
.gitignore. Histories were not preserved per request; this is a fresh start
from the current working state of both projects.

TeslaSuite
The Tesla cockpit-pod software, in one repository:
| Folder | What it is | Target |
|---|---|---|
Console/ |
TeslaConsole — the operator console (WinForms) that configures and drives the pods. A faithful decompiled reconstruction of the original TeslaConsole.exe, with a differential test suite that pins it to the original baseline. |
.NET Framework 4.8 |
Launcher/ |
TeslaLauncher — the pod-side Service (Session 0 RPC listener) + Agent (user-session app launcher). A clean .NET 6 rewrite of the original launcher. | .NET 6 (windows, x86) |
The console and the launcher talk over TCP 53290 using an OFB-encrypted
BinaryFormatter RPC. They share a wire contract (Tesla.Net types +
ILauncherService/IPodManagerConnection signatures) that must stay byte-for-byte
compatible.
⚠️ Known duplication (intentional, for now): that shared contract currently lives in two places — the console consumes it as the compiled
Console/lib/TeslaConsoleLaunchLib.dll, and the launcher hand-replicates the same types inLauncher/LaunchModels_Shared.cs. They must match exactly. Consolidating this into a single multi-targetedTesla.Contractsource project is the main follow-up this monorepo is meant to enable.
Building
Each side has its own toolchain; the combined solution builds both:
dotnet build TeslaSuite.sln -c Release
Or individually:
dotnet build Console/TeslaConsole.csproj -c Release # the console
dotnet test Console/tests/TeslaConsole.DiffTests # differential + catalog tests
dotnet build Launcher/TeslaLauncher.sln -c Release # service + agent
The launcher also has its original Launcher/build.bat / Launcher/install.bat
for producing and deploying the self-contained pod build.
Layout notes
Console/original/TeslaConsole.exeis the reference baseline the differential tests compare against — keep it.Console/lib/*.dllare the proprietary binary dependencies the console still references (TeslaConsoleLaunchLib,TeslaSecureConfiguration,Munga Net,BitmapLibrary,WeifenLuodocking).Console/RedPlanet/Apps.xmlis the data-driven product catalog (see the console's Site Management → Add Product / Register Product on Pods).
