| | v86 (`libv86.js`, `v86.wasm`) 0.5.472 | x86 PC emulator running both DOS machines, NE2000 NIC, DHCP/DNS responder | BSD-2-Clause | https://github.com/copy/v86 | |
| | SeaBIOS and VGABIOS (inside `assets.b64.js`) | BIOS of the emulated PCs, as shipped with v86 | LGPL-3.0 / LGPL-2.1+ | https://github.com/copy/v86/tree/master/bios | |
| | FreeDOS 1.4 Floppy Edition (kernel, FreeCOM) | DOS on the boot floppy (`dosmqtt.img` inside `assets.b64.js`) | GPL-2.0 | https://www.freedos.org/ | |
| | Crynwr NE2000 packet driver 11.4.3 (`NE2000.COM`) | DOS driver for the emulated NE2000 card | Crynwr "freely copyable; source must be available" (GPL-style); source: Crynwr packet drivers 11.x | http://www.georgpotthast.de/sioux/packet.htm , https://archive.org/details/PKTD11A_ZIP | |
| | mTCP 2026-10-10 by Michael B. Brutman (`DHCP.EXE`, TCP/IP library) | DHCP client (unmodified binary) and the TCP/IP stack linked into A.EXE and B.EXE | GPL-3.0-or-later | http://www.brutman.com/mTCP/ | |

| `A.EXE` and `B.EXE` are built from `src/a.cpp`, `src/b.cpp` and `src/mqtt.h` plus the mTCP library sources |
| (`TCPLIB/`, `TCPINC/` of the mTCP source archive). `src/build.sh` shows the exact compiler options. |
| `src/make_image.sh` assembles the boot floppy and `src/build_assets.py` packs it into `assets.b64.js`. |
| |
| The Gradio demo sends the typed question to a third-party public Gradio Space (default `tencent/Hy3`) over HTTPS and prints its reply; that service has its own terms and the reply is not our content. |
| The MQTT brokers (broker.emqx.io, test.mosquitto.org, broker.hivemq.com) are third-party public services. |
| No credentials are used. |
