Regdrift CLI catches breaking changes in CMSIS-SVD register maps
Regdrift is a new open-source CLI and GitHub Action that compares CMSIS-SVD files to detect register-map changes affecting firmware. It classifies changes as BREAKING, WARNING, or SAFE for use as a CI gate. The tool is seeking feedback from developers maintaining SVDs, HALs, PACs, or SDKs.

A niche but valuable tool for embedded developers, though its real-world accuracy depends on community testing against diverse SVD pairs.
