Bought a flatbox clone off AliExpress and immediately broke it...
You can also use Picotool to pull the firmware from flash, but that's slightly more involved.

Vial-QMK firmware now available for the Mini M
- On windows you can download a prebuild version, follow the instructions on this link: http://purdea.ro/picotool/ - On other OSes follow the instructions here on how to build: https://github.com/raspberrypi/picotool

A new era of reprogrammable OEM controllers on Unicom keyboards is beginning. Exciting!
You may want to first save a copy of the original closed firmware, so you can go back to it in case you don't like QMK or VIAL-QMK. For that you will need to build picotool: https://github.com/raspberrypi/picotool And you will need to run something like the following to save the original firmware: sudo ./picotool save -a all.uf2 -t uf2
- flashing without touching board

Upload UF2 File through Serial to Pico
Yes! The picotool can do it. https://github.com/raspberrypi/picotool

rp2040, boot from ram(no flash), swd
I need to boot rp2040 from ram (no flash), which I have tested with the picotool (with USB) and picoprobe (with swd+gdb load) and I can boot from ram and flashing a LED.

You can use picotool to save a copy of the entire flash as a uf2 file.

Picotool detects pico only as root
Perhaps someone has already figured it out: https://github.com/raspberrypi/picotool/issues/32

Raspberry Pi Pico Data
You can use https://github.com/raspberrypi/picotool to dump the flash.

J-Link replacement with Raspberry Pi Pico?
Can Raspberry Pi Pico replace J-Link? I saw PicoProbe project, installed and wired for it, but pyocd stucks with "Waiting for a debug probe to be connected..." and nRF Connect Programmer fails with error "Unsupported device. The detected device could not be recognized as neither JLink device nor Nordic USB device."

Help debugging RP2040 using J-Link and OpenOCD
Even once you've got that handled, though, I'm not sure the JLink will be able to connect. The RP2040 uses a somewhat uncommon variant on SWD to communicate with its two cores; not all debug probes support this. If you can't get the JLink to work and you have a spare Pi Pico around, you can use the Picoprobe firmware to turn the extra Pi into a DAPlink-compatible debug probe.

New Product from Raspberry Pi: Raspberry Pi Debug Probe: a plug-and-play debug kit for $12
That's cool, but does it do anything you can't already do with just another Pico running picoprobe? (like this)

Anyway to use a RP pico as an stlink clone?
Yes -- the Picoprobe firmware is what you're after.

What're my debugging options without a raspberry pi?
And here's the repo for the picoprobe software: https://github.com/raspberrypi/picoprobe
What are some alternatives?
When comparing picotool and debugprobe you can also consider the following projects:
rshell - Remote Shell for MicroPython
pico-debug - virtual debug pod for RP2040 "Raspberry Pi Pico" with no added hardware
vial-qmk-mini-m - This repository contains Vial-QMK firmware for the Unicomp Mini M keyboard. It supports two controllers: 1) The OEM "Justify with Mike Smith" controller from Unicomp (RPI Pico based) 2) The MiniRazz open hardware replacement controller
cortex-debug - Visual Studio Code extension for enhancing debug capabilities for Cortex-M Microcontrollers
vial-qmk-overnumpad-and-aristides-2862 - This repository contains vial-qmk firmware for the open hardware Overnumpad Controller, and for Unicomp's OEM Aristides 2862 controller.
