Agent Authoring

When editing agents:

Prefer explicit tools lists for read-only agents. Use wildcard plus disallowedTools only when you truly need the broad tool pool.
Use mcpServers to add docs/search tooling without hardcoding MCP tool names into the agent prompt.
Use initialPrompt for short steering that should apply on every spawn; keep the main prompt focused on durable review or execution behavior.
memory: project is for reusable repo knowledge. memory: local is for machine-specific workflows that should not leak across environments.
background: true is for long-running monitors or validators that do not need to block the main thread.
Agent hooks are session-scoped to the agent lifetime. Stop hooks become SubagentStop, so keep them outcome-oriented and lightweight.

bom

mattpainter701/my-claude-setup

BOM (Bill of Materials) management for electronics projects — the primary orchestrator skill that coordinates DigiKey, Mouser, LCSC, element14, JLCPCB, PCBWay, and KiCad skills into a unified workflow. Create, update, and maintain BOMs with part numbers, costs, quantities stored as KiCad symbol properties. ALWAYS trigger this skill for any task involving component sourcing, pricing, ordering, distributor searches, BOM export, or fabrication preparation — even if the user names a specific distributor or fab house (e.g. "search DigiKey for...", "generate JLCPCB BOM", "order from Mouser"). This skill decides which distributor/fab skills to invoke and in what order. Also trigger on phrases like "what parts do I need", "order components", "how much will this cost", "export for JLCPCB", "find parts for this board", "cost estimate", "compare pricing", or "check stock".

digikey

mattpainter701/my-claude-setup

Search DigiKey for electronic components and download datasheets — primary source for prototype orders and the preferred API-based method for fetching datasheets. Find parts by keyword or part number, check pricing/stock, download datasheets directly via API, analyze specifications. Sync and maintain a local datasheets directory for a KiCad project — extract components from schematics, download all missing datasheets, keep them up to date. Use with KiCad for BOM creation and part selection. Use this skill when the user asks about electronic components, part specifications, datasheets, footprints, pricing, stock availability, or needs to download/read a datasheet — even if they don't mention "DigiKey" by name. Also use when the user says "sync datasheets", "download datasheets for my board/project", or mentions a datasheets directory. DigiKey is the default distributor for prototyping and the preferred datasheet source because its API returns direct PDF links without web scraping. For package cross-reference t

element14

mattpainter701/my-claude-setup

Search Newark, Farnell, and element14 for electronic components — find parts by MPN or distributor part number, check pricing/stock, download datasheets, analyze specifications. One unified API covers all three storefronts (Newark for US, Farnell for UK/EU, element14 for APAC). Free API key, simple query-parameter auth, no OAuth. Datasheets download directly from farnell.com CDN with no bot protection. Sync and maintain a local datasheets directory for a KiCad project. Use this skill when the user mentions Newark, Farnell, element14, needs parts from a non-US distributor, wants to compare pricing across regions, or needs datasheets from a source that doesn't require complex API auth. For package cross-reference tables and BOM workflow, see the `bom` skill.
