miniz Integration

Overview

Use this skill to integrate miniz by separating format choice, memory budget, streaming strategy, and integrity checks. Compression bugs on MCUs usually come from buffer ownership, incomplete streams, or confusing raw DEFLATE, zlib, gzip, and ZIP containers.

When To Use

Use this skill when:

• The user wants miniz for firmware assets, logs, configuration packages, OTA payloads, filesystems, or embedded resources.
• The issue involves inflate errors, truncated output, high RAM use, ZIP archive handling, CRC mismatch, or streaming decompression.
• The project has constrained RAM/flash, external storage, OTA downloads, or filesystem integration.

Do not use this skill for very small streaming compression windows. Use heatshrink-integration when heatshrink is already selected for tiny MCU buffers.
