    "Requires a supported programmer or mainboard/chip combination. Source builds use Meson; the tool covers interfaces including SPI, LPC, FWH and parallel flash.",
    "The README warns against laptop use because embedded-controller interactions can damage the device, and calls for a backup before writing. Chip access is hardware-specific; firmware extraction is limited to accessible chips and hardware."

    "需要受支持的编程器或主板／芯片组合。源码使用 Meson 构建；工具覆盖 SPI、LPC、FWH 和并行闪存等接口。",
    "README 警告不应在笔记本上使用，以免与嵌入式控制器交互损坏设备，并要求写入前备份。芯片访问依赖具体硬件；固件提取能力限于可访问的芯片和硬件。"
