Best KiCad MCP Servers
KiCad is an open source software suite for Electronic Design Automation (EDA) that facilitates the design of schematics for electronic circuits and their conversion to PCB designs.
Why this server?
Provides tools to interact with KiCad's PCB Editor via IPC API, enabling board information retrieval, footprint management, net/zone/track/via/pad/text listing, and project version access.
Why this server?
Check KiCad symbol libraries for electronic component existence and symbols.
AlicenseAqualityBmaintenanceAggregates 17 free, keyless research sources into a single MCP server, enabling unified search for papers, code, models, trends, standards, and electronic components with deduplicated results.8MITWhy this server?
Provides tools for analyzing KiCad schematics, including querying components, tracing nets, exploring connections, and analyzing multi-board systems through circuit analysis and signal path tracing.
AlicenseAqualityBmaintenanceEnables analysis of KiCad electronic schematics through natural language queries to search components, trace signal paths, explore connections, and analyze multi-board systems.301MITWhy this server?
Provides tools for inspecting and validating KiCad PCB files, with planned support for deterministic routing and DRC in a local-first PCB automation workflow.
AlicenseAqualityAmaintenanceEnables secure, read-only inspection and validation of KiCad PCB boards through MCP, with deterministic routing and optional AI policy plugins.112Apache 2.0Why this server?
Enables automation of the full PCB design workflow in KiCad 9.x, providing tools for project management, schematic capture, PCB layout routing, component library searches, and the generation of manufacturing exports like Gerbers and BOMs.
AlicenseAqualityDmaintenanceAn MCP server for Electronic Design Automation that provides comprehensive tools for managing KiCad 9.x PCB design workflows. It enables users to create schematics, layout PCBs, perform design rule checks, and export manufacturing files through a standardized interface.391MITWhy this server?
