Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00000 | $0.02095 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.01047 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00419 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00210 |
Grade B, and why
client-configs scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping
.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 148 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Agent MCP Client Configurations
KiCad MCP Pro supports local stdio and Streamable HTTP MCP transports. The canonical
copyable examples live under examples/mcp-clients/.
Replace /absolute/path/to/your/kicad-project with the target KiCad project directory.
Use an absolute path unless the client-specific documentation says workspace variables are
expanded in MCP config files.
Setup Matrix
| Client | Config file | Transport | Example | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| VS Code and GitHub Copilot | .vscode/mcp.json or user profile MCP config |
stdio | .vscode/mcp.example.json and examples/mcp-clients/vscode.mcp.example.json |
VS Code uses top-level servers. Copilot Agent mode uses the same MCP server setup. |
| Codex CLI / IDE extension | ~/.codex/config.toml or trusted project config |
stdio | examples/mcp-clients/codex.config.example.toml |
This is Codex as an external MCP client, not the VS Code extension provider enum. |
| Claude Code | .mcp.json |
stdio | examples/mcp-clients/claude-code.mcp.example.json |
Project-scoped config is shareable after replacing paths. |
| Claude Desktop | claude_desktop_config.json |
stdio | examples/mcp-clients/claude-desktop.config.example.json |
Keep user-local credentials out of this repo. |
| Cursor | .cursor/mcp.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json |
stdio | examples/mcp-clients/cursor.mcp.example.json |
Cursor reads MCP config from mcp.json locations. |
| Gemini CLI | ~/.gemini/settings.json |
stdio | examples/mcp-clients/gemini.settings.example.json |
The example leaves trust false so tools still require confirmation. |
| Generic stdio client | Client-specific | stdio | examples/mcp-clients/generic-stdio.mcp.example.json |
Use this for clients that accept the common mcpServers shape. |
| Generic HTTP client | Client-specific | Streamable HTTP | examples/mcp-clients/generic-http.mcp.example.json |
Start the local HTTP server separately on 127.0.0.1. |
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

client-configs is an agent published in the GitHub repository oaslananka/kicad-studio-kit (16 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 2,095 tokens. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
Other agents, from other repositories
chatgpt-app
KiCad MCP Pro has one verified ChatGPT-facing profile today: a public-safe, read-only Streamable HTTP app. It can analyze repository-owned or uploaded project data inside an explicitly configured upload root and render three HTML widgets. It does not grant ChatGPT direct access to a user's local KiCad process.
index
Agent "index" from oaslananka/kicad-mcp-pro, covering kicad mcp — ai agent integration guide, supported agents, quick start, install and run diagnostics.
progressive-disclosure
KiCad MCP Pro defaults to a bounded tool surface so general-purpose agents do not need to choose from the complete expert catalog.
toolsets
KiCad MCP has a broad expert catalog. General agents should use the bounded workflow toolsets below instead of loading the complete catalog. Current expert-surface size is recorded in docs/evidence/progressive-disclosure-profile-snapshot.json.
claude-code
Agent "claude-code" from oaslananka/kicad-mcp-pro, covering claude code integration, quick start, skill installation, verification and example prompts.
cline
Cline is an autonomous coding agent for VS Code (and a CLI). It speaks MCP over stdio and HTTP.
