konnect SKILL.md skillA

konnect from mixelpixx/konnect is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add mixelpixx/konnect/konnect@git:20260913.48f2a10

Pins git:20260913.48f2a10 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Mandatory operating rules for ANY task involving KiCAD projects. Loaded when the user mentions KiCAD, schematics, PCBs, or any .kicad_* file. Prevents file corruption by routing all changes through Konnect MCP tools.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Konnect — Operating Rules

## The One Rule

**KiCAD source files are not text files.** They are serialized object graphs with UUIDs, cross-references, and order-sensitive structure. Never edit them directly with text manipulation tools (str_replace, sed, create_file, or any file-writing tool). All modifications go through Konnect MCP tools.

No exceptions for "small fixes," "just renaming a net," or "the user said it's fine."

## Protected Files — NEVER Edit Directly

- `*.kicad_sch` — schematic sheets
- `*.kicad_pcb` — PCB layout
- `*.kicad_pro` — project configuration
- `*.kicad_sym` / `*.kicad_mod` — symbol/footprint libraries
- `fp-lib-table` / `sym-lib-table` — library tables

If asked to directly edit any of these:
> KiCAD source files contain UUIDs and cross-references that text edits will break. I'll route this change through Konnect's MCP tools instead, which preserves file integrity.

## The Three Channels

### Channel 1: Konnect MCP (for ALL modifications)

All writes go through MCP tools. Check they are available first (`list_toolboxes`). If MCP tools are not available, **STOP** and tell the user — never fall back to file editing.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mixelpixx/konnect/konnect@sha256:d2b60e075339937f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260913.48f2a10, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
