💅 picotool-otp-dump(1) — User Commands, but make it cute

okay so bestie, welcome to the picotool-otp-dump page ✨ this is the one from the User Commands corner of your manual, and it does exactly one iconic thing: it dumps the entire OTP. that's it. that's the gig. 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

picotool-otp-dump — Dump entire OTP

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

picotool otp dump [-r] [-e] [-p] [--output <filename>]
[device-selection]

picotool otp dump [-r] [-e] [-p] [--output <filename>] <input> [-t
<type>]

no cap, that's the whole shape of it. two ways in: pick a device, or hand it an input file. 💖

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

Row/field options

these are the ones that decide what shape the numbers come out in 🦋

  • -r, --raw — Get raw 24-bit values. This is the default, so if you do literally nothing, this is what you get 💅
  • -e, --ecc — Use error correction
  • -p, --pages — Index by page number & row number
  • --output <filename> — Output BIN file to dump to (optional). it's optional bestie, you don't have to ✨

👑 TARGET SELECTION 👑

To dump the contents of a target device

  • --bus <bus> — Filter devices by USB bus number
  • --address <addr> — Filter devices by USB device address
  • --vid <vid> — Filter by vendor id
  • --pid <pid> — Filter by product id
  • --ser <ser> — Filter by serial number
  • -f, --force — Force a device not in BOOTSEL mode but running compatible code to reset so the command can be executed. After executing the command (unless the command itself is a reboot) the device will be rebooted back to application mode. so it goes off to reset, does the thing, then comes right back 🫶
  • -F, --force-no-reboot — Force a device not in BOOTSEL mode but running compatible code to reset so the command can be executed. After executing the command (unless the command itself is a reboot) the device will be left connected and accessible to picotool, but without the USB drive mounted. it stays in the group chat but it's on mute 💀

To dump the contents of an OTP JSON file

  • <input> — The file name
  • -t <type> — Specify file type (json) explicitly, ignoring file extension. tell it what it is, don't make it guess 🙈
lowkey reminder: -r/--raw is the default, -f reboots your device back to app mode, and -F leaves it connected but with no USB drive mounted. know which one you want before you hit enter, queen 👑

that's the whole page !! mwah 💖 written from the picotool 2.2.0-a4+dfsg era, dated December 2025 — slay, periodt, go dump that OTP 🎀🌈💜
