EDA DRC Skill

Design validation, rule checking, and pre-manufacturing review.

Auto-Activation Triggers

This skill activates when:

• User asks to "check design", "validate", "run DRC"
• User asks about design errors or warnings
• User mentions manufacturing readiness
• Project is approaching completion
• User asks "is this ready for fabrication?"

Context Requirements

Requires:

• hardware/*.kicad_sch - Schematic files
• hardware/*.kicad_pcb - PCB layout
• docs/design-constraints.json - Project constraints
• docs/component-selections.md - Selected components

Produces:

• docs/validation-report.md - Comprehensive validation report

Validation Scopes

/eda-check schematic

• Run ERC (Electrical Rules Check)
• Verify power connections
• Check decoupling capacitors
• Validate against datasheet requirements
• Check component values
