@andy31415 This is about trying PW RPC on the ESP32 platform. Can the label be changed to Google or pigweed?

[andy31415]

Removed the label - it looks like the chip-console has issues here. Unsure about who maintains pw-rpc things though at this point.

[andy31415]

I was updating some logging and asserts packages, when checking RPC I hit this in #36297

It seems that the issue is that the chip console was not maintained (we seem to have no tests?) and it changged over time:

• pw_system.console already imports the echo service
• several arguments removed (no ipython, no output, several flags changed)

I updated it to work in that PR and tested locally on linux so far.
