Skills (6)

• circuit-design

  Use when designing an electronic circuit from requirements, choosing topology or regulator type, selecting component values, planning protection circuits, or deciding what goes on a board before schematic capture begins. Also use when the user asks "what components do I need" or "how should I power

• pcb-layout

  Use when placing footprints on a PCB, routing traces, adding vias or copper zones, deciding trace widths, or planning board layout strategy. Also use when the user asks about PCB stackup, ground planes, trace spacing, or component placement on a board.

• schematic-design

  Use when executing a schematic placement plan (plan mode) or modifying an existing schematic (modification mode).

• schematic-plan

  Use after circuit-design produces a validated BOM (specs/bom.md) to plan exact component placement coordinates and wiring before schematic capture begins. Pure planning — no file modifications.

• using-kicad

  Use when starting any conversation involving electronics, KiCad, PCB design, schematic capture, circuit design, or EDA tasks.

• verification

  Use when running ERC or DRC checks, fixing electrical or design rule violations, debugging unconnected nets, resolving "power pin not driven" errors, or preparing a design for manufacturing export. Also use when the user says "my ERC has errors" or "DRC is failing.

Subagents (3)

• bom-reviewer

  Use after the circuit-design skill writes specs/bom.md, and pass it that path. Checks the BOM independently through the KiCad MCP tools: every symbol and footprint exists in its library, every IC has a decoupling capacitor, ratings keep a derating margin over the Constraints section, every external

• code-reviewer

  Use this agent when a major code change to the MCP server itself has been completed and needs to be reviewed against the original plan and project coding standards.

• schematic-plan-reviewer

  Use after the schematic-plan skill writes specs/schematic-plan.md, and pass it that path and the path of specs/bom.md. Checks the placement and wiring plan independently through the KiCad MCP tools: every BOM part is placed, every coordinate fits the declared page inside its margins and title block,

MCP servers (1)

• kicad

  runs: uvx --from mcp-server-kicad mcp-server-kicad

Hooks (2)

• SessionStart

  bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/session-start"

• PreToolUse

  node -e "const d=JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync(0,'utf-8'));if(d.hook_event_name==='PreToolUse'&&['Read','Write','Edit'].includes(d.tool_name)){const f=(d.tool_input||{}).file_path||(d.tool_inp
