What is release-gate?

An evidence-based release check for DipTrace circuit designs. It reviews either a schematic or a PCB against the applicable checks and returns PASS or BLOCKED for the exact file version and review scope.

Use it for the final release decision on a DipTrace design, covering electrical, board, manufacturing, assembly, testing, BOM, and thermal checks when available.

It prevents an apparently successful tool run from being mistaken for complete manufacturing or design approval, while exposing missing checks and remaining serious findings.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00082	$0.00896
Opus 5.5	$0.00033	$0.00358
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00016	$0.00179
Haiku 4.5	$0.00008	$0.00090

Security

Grade A, and why

release-gate 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 28d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 64 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Read runtime access before choosing between explicit-path MCP, a live bridge session, and native/headless CLI. Their availability is separate.

Release gate

RAG: engineering memory by default — shared workflow. Audit source-backed design decisions and DFM/DFA/DFT criteria carried from earlier stages; consult missing criteria, including DipTrace verification/export course material.

Return PASS only for the exact requested revision and declared review scope. A green MCP run is not fab-house approval or DipTrace-format certification. Use public tools/list for exact callable names and get_capabilities for document/configured feature availability.

Workflow

Call diptrace_status, get_capabilities, and get_document_info; record the exact SHA-256.
Select profiles by document kind:
- PCB: run_review with profiles board_review, drc_basic, connectivity, dfm_basic, dfa_basic, dft_basic, bom_basic, and thermal_basic; supplement with analyze_release_readiness for bounded DFM/DFA/DFT findings available from exported XML (it supplements, not replaces, DipTrace sign-off).
- schematic: run_review with profiles schematic_review, erc_basic, connectivity, and bom_basic.
Compare each result against the implemented/partial/missing matrix in REVIEW_ENGINE.md.
Deduplicate by check ID and stable object identity. Preserve waivers, DNP state, explicit no-connects, confidence, approximation flags, and every skipped disclosure.
For native acceptance, consume SHA-bound evidence or run the supported headless workflow on a copy through evidence capture. A full PCB release requires native refill/DRC and the specified connectivity evidence; a fabrication release also requires actual CAM inspection through production pack. Do not mark these requirements outside scope merely because an MCP tool is absent. Decide PASS only when no critical/error finding remains, all caller-mandatory implemented checks ran, the SHA stayed stable, and every unavailable category was accepted as outside scope.
Otherwise decide BLOCKED and list the shortest evidence-producing next actions.
Emit ../shared/result.schema.json; put the decision in summary and as a finding, not in the transport status.

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.

release-gate is a skill published in the GitHub repository fireostendere/mcp_diptrace (25 stars, last pushed 24d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 82 tokens to every session and 896 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
