sch_export_bom

Read-onlyIdempotent

Exports the schematic BOM as parsed rows keyed by column header, letting you verify supplier part numbers and quantities survived batch component edits.

Instructions

Export the schematic-side BOM as parsed rows (one object per BOM line, keyed by column header). The schematic BOM is the source of truth for supplier metadata — recommended for verifying BOM integrity after batch edits (e.g. confirm Supplier Part / LCSC numbers survived a sch_modify_component run). Columns follow the EasyEDA BOM template, e.g. "Designator", "Quantity", "Manufacturer Part", "Supplier Part". Supports filter/fields/limit on the rows (e.g. filter: {"Designator": "R*"}). For a PCB-side BOM file (xlsx/csv, base64), use pcb_export with format:"bom" instead.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
limitNoTruncate result array to at most N items
fieldsNoProject results to only these top-level keys. Response includes _availableFields showing all keys. IMPORTANT: Always specify fields when you know what you need — without it, responses include every property and can be extremely large (100KB+), wasting context.
filterNoKeep items matching all conditions (AND). Exact: {key: value}, prefix glob: {key: "R*"}, OR: {key: ["a","b"]}
documentYesTarget document UUID — auto-switches to this document before executing. Get UUIDs from list_instances or editor_get_open_tabs.
templateNoBOM template name (defaults to the project default template)
instance_idNoTarget EasyEDA instance ID (8-char hex). Required when multiple instances are connected. Omit when only one instance is connected (auto-selected). Use list_instances to see connected instances.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already establish the safe read profile (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false, openWorldHint=false). The description adds real behavioral context beyond that: the schematic BOM is the source of truth for supplier metadata, the return is structured parsed rows, and it names the concrete failure mode it detects (lost Supplier Part / LCSC numbers). It does not discuss pagination/truncation behavior, hence not a 5.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Front-loaded with what it returns, then source-of-truth rationale, then supported options, then the disambiguation to pcb_export. Four tight sentences, no filler.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

No output schema exists, and the description compensates by describing the return shape (rows keyed by column header) and naming the column vocabulary. For a read-only export with fully documented parameters, nothing an agent needs to invoke it correctly is missing.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description goes modestly beyond by explaining what the columns actually are (EasyEDA BOM template fields such as Designator, Quantity, Manufacturer Part, Supplier Part) and giving a working filter example, which grounds the filter/fields/limit parameters in the BOM domain.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource (export the schematic-side BOM as parsed rows) plus the exact row shape ('one object per BOM line, keyed by column header'). It also draws the boundary against the sibling pcb_export, so an agent can pick correctly without opening either schema.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly says when to use it (verifying BOM integrity after batch edits such as sch_modify_component) and names the alternative for the other case (pcb_export with format:"bom" for PCB-side BOM files). Both the when and the when-not are stated.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
