Everything related to requests has been merged into master, is there something else that needs to be done?
Or would you like for me to wait for all of my PRs to get merged into master first?

No, no. You are adding packages to the master branch to have a working PlatformIO, which has not been added so far. Once it is verified to be working in the master branch to see the why the host packages were added, then it could be backported. Nonetheless, for now, backporting hostbuilds for OpenWrt 24.10 does not make any sense.

FYI you can see it already here https://github.com/openwrt-meshtastic/openwrt-meshtastic/actions/runs/12342391075, the packages are available in https://github.com/openwrt-meshtastic/repo/tree/gh-pages/main

Hey @ynezz :) I'm glad you found my "repo".
The ultimate goal is outlined at https://github.com/openwrt-meshtastic/openwrt-meshtastic/blob/main/upstreaming.md

As you saw, I am doing my best to test each package thoroughly and for as many archs as I can. I really appreciate all of the OpenWRT team's critical feedback so I can make these contributions meaningful.
