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 | $0.00031 | $0.00977 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00489 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00195 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00098 |
Grade A, and why
schematic-review 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 11d 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 — 147 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Schematic Review Skill
Use this skill when an AI agent is asked to inspect, review, or safely improve a KiCad schematic through KiCad MCP Pro.
This skill is specific to oaslananka/kicad-mcp-pro and should be kept synchronized with docs/tools-reference.generated.md.
When to use
Use this skill for:
- Pre-layout schematic review
- ERC review
- Net connectivity review
- Power flag and no-connect review
- Symbol, footprint, and component-property inspection
- Readability and visual QA
- Conservative schematic edits when explicitly requested
Do not use this skill to claim electrical correctness without ERC, design-rule review, datasheet review, and human engineering approval.
Required context
Collect:
- Active project path and schematic file
- Design intent and functional requirements
- Expected power rails, interfaces, and critical nets
- Component sourcing assumptions
- Whether the task is read-only review or allowed to modify the schematic

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.

schematic-review is a skill published in the GitHub repository oaslananka/kicad-mcp-pro (83 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 31 tokens to every session and 977 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 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.
Other skills, from other repositories
jlcpcb-headstage-pcb
A project-specific guide for reviewing and improving printed-circuit-board designs made for JLCPCB's electronics-manufacturing service. It also covers manufacturing files such as Gerbers and drill files.
circuit-design
Use when designing an electronic circuit from requirements, choosing topology or regulator type, selecting component values, planning protection circuits, or deciding what goes on a board before schematic capture begins. Also use when the user asks "what components do I need" or "how should I power this.".
using-kicad
Use when starting any conversation involving electronics, KiCad, PCB design, schematic capture, circuit design, or EDA tasks.
schematic-plan
Use after circuit-design produces a validated BOM (specs/bom.md) to plan exact component placement coordinates and wiring before schematic capture begins. Pure planning — no file modifications.
pcb-layout
Use when placing footprints on a PCB, routing traces, adding vias or copper zones, deciding trace widths, or planning board layout strategy. Also use when the user asks about PCB stackup, ground planes, trace spacing, or component placement on a board.
schematic-design
Use when executing a schematic placement plan (plan mode) or modifying an existing schematic (modification mode).
