Self-improvement loop for the kicad skill pack: each tick picks one

backlog item, researches forums if needed, builds/tests against the

fixture project, commits, and feeds lessons back into the skills.

Use on /loop ticks or when asked to improve the kicad skills.

# Self-improvement loop (one tick = one slice)

Repo: `~/prj/20260610_kicad-agent-skills`. Never test against real user

projects (read-only soak targets only); use `tests/fixtures/`.

## Tick protocol

1. `git -C ~/prj/20260610_kicad-agent-skills log --oneline | head` +

read `doc/BACKLOG.md` — pick the TOP unchecked item only.

2. If the item needs domain knowledge: ONE focused forum/web sweep

- (kicad.info, EEVblog, Hackaday, official dev-docs); distill into the

+ (kicad.info, EEVblog, Hackaday, official dev-docs — WebSearch/WebFetch

+ are deferred tools: load via ToolSearch first); distill into the

relevant SKILL.md or doc/DESIGN.md — cite the source.

3. Build the slice; test on fixtures (`python3 tests/test_roundtrip.py`

plus slice-specific test); mutation-test any new verifier rule.

4. Commit (one commit per step, no Co-Authored-By trailer).

5. Feed back: update the SKILL.md that the lesson belongs to; tick the

backlog box; append new discoveries as new backlog items.

6. End the tick by suggesting the user run /compact.

## Quality bar

SOLID, zero-copy where sensible, no dead code, no legacy left behind;

every behavior provable by a command the next tick can rerun.
