#12Hit this exact wall six months back building Claude Code stuff for KiCad review[1]. First pass let Claude read .kicad_sch directly via grep/read. It happily invented pin numbers that didn't exist. Rewrote it with Python analyzers that spit out JSON, now Claude just reads the JSON, problem mostly went away. Curious how spicelib-mcp handles models that aren't in the bundled library. Do you pass the .lib path as a tool…
Spicelib really just makes calls to the selected spice engine (in my case ngspice). In this setup spicelib‘s main job is to parse the raw spice data and have a unified interface regardless which spice engine is selected. But to answer the question: the path to the spice model must currently be set explicitly.

#13Really nice. My mother is an applied Physics teacher, and she told me they had a hard time at work figuring out how they could connect their teaching material to LLM in a relevant way. This should be useful to her.

#16Heh, this is like the last thing you need claude for. I mean, you have eyes and brain.

#17Nice! Doing something similar with a Jumperless so that the model can reconfigure the circuit on the fly.
Great use case!

#20this kind of thing is super cool to close the loop.
waiting for FPAA to get better so we can vibecode analog circuits
