What Eda Agent does

MCP server that lets an AI (or any MCP-compatible client) interact with a live Altium Designer session. It exposes 195+ tools covering schematic, PCB, library, and project operations over a persistent DelphiScript bridge — the AI reads the design you currently have open, asks questions about it, and can modify it in place while you watch.

README

eda-agent

MCP server that lets an AI (or any MCP-compatible client) interact with a live Altium Designer session. It exposes 300+ tools covering schematic, PCB, library, project, and design-agent operations over a persistent DelphiScript bridge. The AI reads the design you currently have open, asks questions about it, and can modify it in place while you watch.

⚠️ Experimental. Not all tools are extensively tested. Some can crash the Altium DelphiScript engine. See Known limitations before using on any design you haven't backed up.

Demo

Claude Code reviewing a buck converter through eda-agent. The feedback resistor divider on this schematic is intentionally wrong; Claude catches it among other recommendations.

Dashboard

Two dashboards ship with eda-agent:

In-Altium status window — a floating Altium-side window showing live status, request count, cumulative Altium-side time, auto-shutdown countdown, and a per-command log with durations. Hide pings filters the 30 s keep-alive traffic; Only >100ms isolates slow calls. The Detach button saves all dirty docs and exits the polling loop cleanly.
Web dashboard — a local browser dashboard at http://127.0.0.1:8766, focused on design review. A Review tab surfaces datasheet / MPN / manufacturer / footprint coverage gauges and an actionable issue queue (missing datasheet, missing MPN, orphan nets, ...); Project, Components, Nets, Libraries and Plan tabs give live structured views. Click any component or net to drill into a detail drawer; one click cross-probes it into Altium. Light / dark theme, server-sent-events live feed. It is auto-started by the MCP server — the Open Dashboard button on the in-Altium status window launches the browser.

How it works

Altium Designer stays open and in full control of your design
A DelphiScript polling loop runs inside Altium's scripting engine
eda-agent (Python, launched by your MCP client) sends commands via file-based IPC
Altium executes, writes a response, and returns to polling
You see the changes happen live in Altium

This is not a batch tool that opens a project, runs a script, and exits. It's a live connection for as long as you want it (conversational design review, guided refactoring, ad-hoc BOM queries, "what nets does this resistor connect to?"), all on the project you currently have open.

Features

300+ tools across application, project, library, schematic/general, PCB, and design-agent categories
Generic primitives (obj_query, obj_modify, obj_create, obj_delete, run_process) that work on almost any schematic or PCB object type via late-binding, avoiding per-type handler proliferation
Bulk batch primitives: obj_batch_modify, obj_batch_create, obj_batch_delete, pcb_place_tracks, pcb_move_components, sch_place_wires, place_net_labels, place_power_ports, sch_place_components, sch_set_components_parameters, get_sch_doc_pins, lib_add_pins, proj_get_connectivity_many, sim_attach_primitives. Collapse N LLM turns + N IPC round-trips into one. Typical wall-time savings: 10 to 100x on multi-item edits
Design review snapshot: design_review_snapshot bundles 8 to 12 review reads (project info, components, nets, rules, diff, messages, stats, unrouted, BOM) into a single call. One LLM turn instead of a dozen
Design-lint sweep: design_lint_report runs 31 audit checks in one IPC pass and returns a structured violation list — schematic-side (component-parameter visibility per class, power-port orientation, floating ports, multi-output / no-driver nets, duplicate designators, off-grid components) and PCB-side (DNP variant componen
