Analyses a KiCad PCB's PLACEMENT and produces a placement plan. Measures whether the board should be placed or re-placed at all and decides from that measurement, detects an unplaced board, separates the parts whose position is a mechanical fact from the ones…
Plans a KiCad PCB end to end when ONE run must both place and route it. Sequences the placement skill and the routing skill, and owns the rules that exist only when the two meet: that placement invalidates every downstream routed board, that a routing failure…
Analyzes a KiCad PCB file and creates a comprehensive routing plan. Examines components for fanout needs (BGA/QFN/QFP/PGA), identifies differential pairs, categorizes power/ground nets, and presents a step-by-step routing workflow with explanations.
Post-route QA on a KiCad board. Runs the DRC, connectivity, and orphan-stub checkers, verifies length/time-match groups landed within tolerance, checks GND return via coverage on high-speed nets, and reviews differential pairs. Produces a pass/fail sign-off…
Stress-tests the router against real-world open-source KiCad boards (downloaded, normalized, stripped of routing), measuring routing completion rates and DRC violations per board. Aggregates results and files GitHub issues for new router/parser findings after…
Root-causes failed routes from a routing run's logs and the board file. Parses the JSON summary, failed-net histories, and blocking reports, correlates failures spatially with board regions and components, classifies the failure mode, and outputs a…
Analyzes a KiCad PCB to identify high-speed and impedance-controlled nets by looking up component datasheets via AI. Classifies nets by speed tier (ultra-high/high/medium/low), detects RF/antenna feeds and other controlled-impedance nets, estimates max…
Identifies differential pairs on a KiCad PCB by pin function via datasheet lookup, catching pairs whose net names don't follow P/N conventions. Recommends per-interface routing parameters (differential impedance, gap, intra-pair matching) and outputs…
