# Autoroute a KiCad board and validate the result through MCP

Run a bounded Freerouting pass on a KiCad board, inspect DRC and unrouted nets, then prepare fabrication exports only after the result is reviewed.

## Prerequisites

KiCad with pcbnew, Node.js 18+, compatible Python 3.9+, MCP client, Freerouting and supported Java or container runtime

## Installation

Install or set up from the source-backed instructions:

Clone https://github.com/mixelpixx/KiCAD-MCP-Server.git at tag v2.9.0. In the checkout run npm install, install requirements.txt with KiCad's compatible Python, and run npm run build. Verify pcbnew import, configure the absolute dist/index.js MCP entrypoint and Python paths, and install Freerouting plus its documented Java/container runtime. Check the platform guide before selecting paths.
