CopperPilot in Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex
copper-pilot-cli now exposes the PCB agent as a skill, a Claude Code plugin, and an MCP server. The outer tool delegates. CopperPilot designs the board.
CopperPilot in your terminal: a CLI and LangChain agent for PCB design
copper-pilot-cli is on PyPI: the same PCB design agent, in your terminal and as a LangChain Runnable. English in, KiCad out, clean ERC and DRC.
I built CopperPilot to design PCBs. I used it to fix my car.
A stuck car horn, a fuse box, and an AI that is already good at reading datasheets and circuits.
