Passive esp8266 project when you have an extra one laying around?
Other ideas: - Setting up a Wifi sniffer to detect which devices are around - Make it an MQTT broker: https://iotbyhvm.ooo/esp8266-mqtt-broker/ - Making it a Remote serial device: https://github.com/jeelabs/esp-link

wifi showing up as USB-serial connection possible?
https://github.com/jeelabs/esp-link is a serial link. I haven't tried it for this purpose but have used it as a serial bridge for other purposes.

How to debug when using OTA?
The main gotcha is these things won't help you if your code dies before it starts networking. If you want to debug that stuff, you pretty much need something like this thing.

Just started working on a Wi-Fi modem
Hmm. Maybe you could also achieve this using an ESP8266. There are lots of projects on Github like esp link and Wi-Fi modem. The ESP Link has a telnet server so you could just dial the IP using telnet and communicate with the device.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing esp-link and WifiModem you can also consider the following projects:
esp32-ssh-server - ESP32 SSH Server (Proof of concept)
OpenDNC - Open Source Direct Numerical Control for CNCs over Ethernet & Serial.
WebSerial - Remote Serial monitor for ESP8266 & ESP32
wi-se-hw - Cheap and tiny ESP8266 boards for Wi-Se to access your SBC or router serial port remotely
