Run the explicit, human-in-the-loop Circuit Weaver questionnaire from requirements through a validated design and KiCad handoff. Use only when the user asks for the design-wizard skill, the offline interactive wizard, or a slow step-by-step guided questionnaire. Do not trigger for ordinary new-design requests; use circuit-weaver for automatic end-to-end orchestration.
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
# Circuit Design Wizard An interactive, console-level question-and-answer workflow that hand-holds users through the full Circuit Weaver pipeline — from vague idea to quote-ready KiCad outputs. > **Disambiguation:** This is the **step-by-step guided** wizard with human-in-the-loop control at every step. For **automatic same-agent** design orchestration, use `$circuit-weaver`. For **analyzing existing KiCad files**, use `$kicad`. **About this skill:** This is the **manual, step-by-step guide** with human-in-the-loop control. Compare with: - **`$circuit-weaver` skill** — Automatic, same-agent orchestration for IC research and design assembly; supports `fast` vs `normal` research depth, and uses `sonar-pro` when configured and compatible, otherwise native web tooling - **`circuit-weaver design-wizard` CLI** — Offline interactive wizard (no agents, works standalone, good for learning) **How this skill works:** You (the AI agent) drive a multi-step conversation. At each step you ask the user targeted questions, summarize what you learned, and then proceed. Never skip a step without telling the user why. Use the …

How to install
mdr add mattpainter701/kicad_automations/design-wizard@sha256:61b1a7796b00725cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.0d21ce3, 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.
