Program STM8 flash

Can I use "STM32 ST-Link Utility" or "STM32CubeProgrammer" to program STM8MCU flash?

If using "STVP", can it automatically detect the STM8MCU type? or require to configure "STVP" for the MCU type to be programmed.

    As can be seen from the name, STM32 ST-Link Utility and STM32CubeProgrammer can only be used for STM32.

    STVP cannot automatically determine the target MCU, so it must always be specified.
