kicad · experimental channel

Your agent on the board.

Hawknet connects Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or any MCP client to a running KiCad PCB Editor session. Your agent reads the open board and verifies its own changes with viewport screenshots.

What your agent can do

01

Read the live board

Footprints, tracks, nets, zones, and drawings come from the open PCB Editor session, with layers, positions, and lock state attached.

02

Screenshot the canvas

Your agent captures the PCB canvas as an image and checks its own layout changes visually, before and after every edit.

03

Script the session

A python action runs inside the running editor with pcbnew and the live board in scope, so multi-step edits happen in one call.

04

The daemon you already run

Same local daemon, same MCP entry, same license as the Roblox and Blender targets. KiCad is one more surface, not a second product.

Setup

Enabled in the installer

$ curl -sSfL https://hawknet.cloud.whitehawkgroup.net/install.sh | bash

Pick the experimental edition when the installer asks. One license key covers stable and experimental; experimental builds self-update on their own channel.

01

Install the experimental edition

Run the one-line installer and pick experimental when it asks. Your license key unlocks the download.

02

Let it wire KiCad

The installer detects KiCad and sets up the Hawknet plugin for the PCB Editor.

03

Open a board and go

Reload your MCP client, open your project in KiCad, and the kicad tool is live for your agent.
