Koskamo

KiCad Workbench MCP

An MCP server enabling AI agents to interact with KiCad 8, 9, and 10 projects. It allows agents to read schematics, boards, and libraries; run ERC and DRC checks; generate Bills of Materials (BOM); and write changes back to schematics. It leverages kicad-cli for exports and the pcbnew Python module for reading board data.
