bom-reviewer

bom-reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from ProductOfAmerica/mcp-server-kicad. It costs 105 tokens per session (737 once invoked), scanned A, original, GPL-3.0.

A review agent for a BOM, or bill of materials, in a KiCad circuit project. A BOM lists the electronic parts needed to build a circuit, and the agent checks those parts against KiCad libraries and design constraints.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review `specs/bom.md`, confirm parts and footprints exist, check voltage and current margins, and verify basic circuit safeguards.
Why use it?
It catches invalid symbols or footprints, missing protection or decoupling capacitors, and component ratings that are too close to operating limits. It independently verifies each row instead of trusting labels in the document.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

bom-reviewer scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 7d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

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.
