kicad-manufacture SKILL.md skillA

kicad-manufacture 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/kicad-manufacture@git:20261001.fdc5b97

Pins git:20261001.fdc5b97 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Manufacturing and fabrication workflow for KiCAD projects via MCP tools. Triggers on: "send to fab", "order boards", "gerbers", "JLCPCB", "manufacturing", "export for production", "pick and place", "assembly files", "generate fabrication outputs", "BOM for fab", "production files", "fab house".

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

# KiCAD Manufacturing & Fabrication Workflow

Prepare manufacturing outputs through Konnect MCP tools. Treat each tool result
as evidence with a named scope: a successful request is not by itself proof of a
complete, current, upload-ready package. A required check or artifact that cannot
be established makes the manufacturing verdict `INCOMPLETE`.

## Toolset loading

Load the required toolsets:

```
load_toolset('pcb_export')       # Gerber, drill, BOM, position, 3D, and direct DRC evidence
load_toolset('manufacturing')    # Package export, manufacturing preflight, and rough cost estimate
```

Load additional toolsets only for the branch that needs them:

```
load_toolset('sch_analysis')     # schematic inventory and footprint assignment
load_toolset('integration')      # local JLCPCB catalogue and alternatives
```

Call `get_active_toolsets()` before loading more.

### References by manufacturing branch

- Read [`references/gerber-layers.md`](references/gerber-layers.md) when
  selecting plot layers or accepting a generated artifact inventory.
- Read [`references/jlcpcb-rules.md`](references/jlcpcb-rules.md) only when
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mixelpixx/konnect/kicad-manufacture@sha256:3c33189b77113a16

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261001.fdc5b97, 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.
