While the examples in this guide often reference Claude Desktop, the server is compatible with **any MCP-compliant client**. You can use it with Claude Desktop, your own custom MCP clients, or any other application that implements the Model Context Protocol.\n\n## Table of Contents\n\n- [Prerequisites](#prerequisites)\n- [Installation Steps](#installation-steps)\n- [Understanding MCP Components](#understanding-mcp-components)\n- [Feature Highlights](#feature-highlights)\n- [Natural Language Interaction](#natural-language-interaction)\n- [Documentation](#documentation)\n- [Configuration](#configuration)\n- [Development Guide](#development-guide)\n- [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting)\n- [Contributing](#contributing)\n- [Future Development Ideas](#future-development-ideas)\n- [License](#license)\n\n## Prerequisites\n\n- macOS, Windows, or Linux\n- Python 3.10 or higher\n- KiCad 9.0 or higher\n- uv 0.8.0 or higher\n- Claude Desktop (or another MCP client)\n\n## Installation Steps\n\n### 1. Set Up Your Python Environment\n\nFirst, let's install dependencies and set up our environment:\n\n```bash\n# Clone the repository\ngit clone https://github.com/lamaalrajih/kicad-mcp.git\ncd kicad-mcp\n\n# Install dependencies – `uv` will create a `.venv/` folder automatically\n# (Install `uv` first: `brew install uv` on macOS or `pipx install uv`)\nmake install\n\n# Optional: activate the environment for manual commands\nsource .venv/bin/activate\n```\n\n### 2. Configure Your Environment\n\nCreate a `.env` file to customize where the server looks for your KiCad projects:\n\n```bash\n# Copy the example environment file\ncp .env.example .env\n\n# Edit the .env file\nvim .env\n```\n\nIn the `.env` file, add your custom project directories:\n\n```\n# Add paths to your KiCad projects (comma-separated)\nKICAD_SEARCH_PATHS=~/pcb,~/Electronics,~/Projects/KiCad\n```\n\n### 3. Run the Server\n\nOnce the environment is set up, you can run the server:\n\n```ba…","publisher":{"name":"KiCad MCP Contributors","url":null},"homepage":"https://github.com/lamaalrajih/kicad-mcp#readme","repository":"https://github.com/lamaalrajih/kicad-mcp/issues","version":"0.1.0","license":"MIT","protocols":["mcp"],"tags":["ai","assistant","eda","electronics","kicad","mcp","model-context-protocol","pcb","schematic"],"pricing":null,"endpoints":[{"url":"pypi:iflow-mcp_kicad-mcp","type":"package_pypi","auth":null,"probeable":false}],"skills":null,"tools":null,"extra":null,"attribution":{"kind":"pypi","name":"pypi","license":"pypi","repoUrl":"pypi","summary":"pypi","version":"pypi","description":"pypi","homepageUrl":"pypi","publisherName":"pypi"}},"derived":{"capabilities":[{"slug":"dev.version-control","name":"Version Control","confidence":1,"provenance":"derived"}],"categories":["dev"],"language":"en"},"observed":{"status":"unknown","statusReason":"Distributed as a package to run locally; no network endpoint to check.","lastOkAt":null,"lastProbedAt":null,"statusComputedAt":null,"reliability30d":null,"latestObservations":[],"tools":null,"package":{"name":"iflow-mcp_kicad-mcp","registry":"pypi","observedAt":"2026-09-15T18:22:06.276Z","publishedAt":"2025-11-10T07:24:01.303685Z","latestVersion":"0.1.0"},"toolSurface":null,"endpointFacts":[]},"verification":{"claimed":false,"claimedAt":null,"proofs":[]},"provenance":{"sources":[{"source":"pypi","key":"iflow-mcp_kicad-mcp","url":"https://pypi.org/project/iflow-mcp_kicad-mcp/","firstSeenAt":"2026-09-09T19:24:31.445Z","fetchedAt":"2026-09-15T18:21:00.535Z","normalizedAt":"2026-09-15T18:21:00.535Z"}]},"firstSeenAt":"2026-09-09T19:24:31.445Z","updatedAt":"2026-09-15T18:22:06.276Z"}
