kicadlisted
Analyze KiCad EDA projects and PDF schematics — schematics, PCB layouts, Gerbers, footprints, symbols, design rules, netlists. Review designs for bugs, suggest improvements, extract BOMs, trace nets, cross-reference schematic to PCB, verify DRC/ERC, check DFM, analyze power trees and regulator circuits. Also analyze PDF schematics from dev boards, reference designs, eval kits, and datasheets — extract subcircuits, component values, and connectivity for incorporation into KiCad projects. Supports KiCad 5–9. Use whenever the user mentions KiCad files (.kicad_sch, .kicad_pcb, .kicad_pro), PCB design review, schematic analysis, PDF schematics, reference designs, Gerber files, DRC/ERC, netlist issues, BOM extraction, signal tracing, power budget, design for manufacturing, or wants to understand, debug, compare, or review any hardware design. Also use when the user says things like "check my board", "review before fab", "what's wrong with my schematic", "is this design ready to order", "check my power supply", "ver

# KiCad Project Analysis Skill
> **Disambiguation:** This skill analyzes **existing** KiCad files (.kicad_sch, .kicad_pcb). For *creating new designs from scratch*, use `/circuit-weaver` or `/design_wizard`. For *BOM sourcing and ordering*, use `/bom`. For *circuit simulation*, use `/sim`.
## Related Skills
| Skill | Purpose |
|-------|---------|
| `bom` | BOM extraction, enrichment, ordering, and export workflows |
| `digikey` | Search DigiKey for parts (prototype sourcing) |
| `mouser` | Search Mouser for parts (secondary prototype source) |
| `lcsc` | Search LCSC for parts (production sourcing, JLCPCB) |
| `jlcpcb` | PCB fabrication & assembly ordering |
| `pcbway` | Alternative PCB fabrication & assembly |
**Handoff guidance:** Use this skill to parse schematics/PCBs and extract structured data. Hand off to `bom` for BOM enrichment, pricing, and ordering. Hand off to `digikey`/`mouser`/`lcsc` for part searches and datasheet fetching. Hand off to `jlcpcb`/`pcbway` for fabrication ordering and DFM rule validation.
**Design readiness check:** When a user asks "is this ready to order", "check my design", or wants a pre-fab review, run the confidence dashboard:
```bash
python -m circuit_weaver confidence design.yaml --run-sims -o confidence_report.html
```
This aggregates validation, simulation, thermal, DFM, ERC, and cross-reference checks into a single 0-100 readiness score.
