# Next Steps with M2

## SavvyCAN

[Visit the dedicated SavvyCAN page.](/projects/m2-projects/use-m2-with-savvycan.md)

Can-Utils

If you want to use it with Can-Utils check out our socket-can guide and the Can-Utils GitHub <https://github.com/linux-can/can-utils> to install this Linux program.

OBDII Scanner Sketch

If you want to query the ECU, all you need to do is upload this scanner sketch to M2:&#x20;

CanCat

Another program you can use is CanCat; it's similar to RfCat. This gives you a powerful python interface to reverse engineer the CAN bus. <https://github.com/atlas0fd00m/CanCat>

## Craig Smith

Craig has a number of programs that are based around socketcan and should, in theory, work with the slcan interface possible with M2RET. Examples: ICSim, UDSim, CaringCaribou. I haven’t tested them with an M2 but I think we ought to do so as they provide some useful things we would otherwise lack. I know that CaringCaribou didn’t work well when I tried it with a GVRET device a few years ago but the situation might be different now.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.macchina.cc/product-documentation/m2-docs/next-steps-with-m2.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
