I wrote an in-depth research prompt to conduct a GPT-Deep-Research on the Manus topic, seeking to replicate it with currently available open source tools. This is the result:

TLDR: Manus AI Agent Report

Manus is an autonomous AI agent built as a wrapper around foundation models (primarily Claude 3.5/3.7 and Alibaba's Qwen). It operates in a cloud-based virtual computing environment with full access to tools like web browsers, shell commands, and code execution. The system's key innovation is using executable Python code as its action mechanism ("CodeAct" approach), allowing it to perform complex operations autonomously. The architecture consists of an iterative agent loop (analyze → plan → execute → observe), with specialized modules for planning, knowledge retrieval, and memory management. Manus uses file-based memory to track progress and store information across operations. The system can be replicated using open-source components including CodeActAgent (a fine-tuned Mistral model), Docker for sandbox

Cloning a 7-byte UID MFC (Mifare Classic) 1k card and more

This is a little blog about my trials of figuring out how to clone a 7-byte 1k MFC card and more I discovered. I'm not an expert, this is just what I found out. I'm writing it down because I couldn't find a single place where this info was grouped together.

A little while ago I bought a Flipper Zero because I was interested in the world of NFC/RFID tags and I wanted to figure out a way to clone my NFC card used to open the underground waste container in my neighbourhood.

Findings

It turns out most of my NFC cards used for various services are so called MIFARE Classic (MFC) 1K cards. These appear to be the most common card used for semi-secure things. The tag used to enter my office is a MIFARE DESfire card, which as far as I know, isn't clonable unless you have the decryption keys.
- There is also a MIFARE Classic 4K version which can store more data. I haven't encountered this one yet so nothing I can tell you about it.

TP-Link Router Config

Update 2021-04-29: This may still work for you if you've got an old TP-Link router, but this is not maintained and doesn't work with newer models. If you've got a newer router, other projects like tpconf_bin_xml will likely work better for you.

TP-Link allows you to backup and restore your router's config file. For some reason, they decided to encrypt these backups so you cannot modify them. I think this is dumb. This script lets you decrypt and re-encrypt your config files so you can modify them as you see fit.

I use this to modify my reserved addresses list because editing them through the web interface is terribly slow and cumbersome.

Go to the router and download the config file from the "Backup & Restore" section of "System Tools".
Run ruby tp.rb config.bin
