I would like to customize my own set of AT commands and run them on ESP8266. It is hard to do it through the Espressif SDK. I am wondering if this is possible through the new ESP8266 Arduino IDE. Can this be done? What are the limitations compared to using Espressif SDK directly?

Bit like reinventing the wheel isn't it will the ArduinoIDEExamples help?

The ESP8266 is not a stand-alone chip in my context. It needs to talk to a host MCU, so a AT-command based firmware is necessary. The AT commands available in EspressIf is not able to meet my needs. So, I have to write my own set of AT commands. Don't think this is reinventing the wheel.
Are there examples of AT-command firmware on Arduino IDE?

With Arduino IDE, you can have a simple sketch that received your custom commands thru either Serial or Wifi, or both, and execute those commands accordingly. It is what I've done with my Sketch_Buffet.
