Trust breakdown (7 categories)

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →

Supply Chain Security100
  • No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
  • No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
  • No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
  • No production dependencies, so there is no dependency health to assess. View diagnostics → Pass
Provenance & Transparency100
  • Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
  • Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to oaslananka/kicad-mcp-pro). View diagnostics → Pass
  • Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
  • Actively maintained (last published 6 days ago).Pass
  • Publishes a security disclosure policy (SECURITY.md).Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability0
  • Schema quality not yet verified: this server's registry entry declares environment variables (an API key or similar) that our sandbox does not supply, so we have no schema to assess.Unverified
Stability & Change Management0
  • Stability not yet verified: this server's registry entry declares environment variables (an API key or similar) that our sandbox does not supply, so we have no schema to compare.Unverified
Tool Coverage0
  • Tool coverage not yet verified: this server's registry entry declares environment variables (an API key or similar) that our sandbox does not supply, so we have no tool definitions to assess.Unverified
Tool Safety0
  • Tool safety not yet verified: this server's registry entry declares environment variables (an API key or similar) that our sandbox does not supply, so we have no tool text to scan.Unverified
Capabilities0
  • Protocol version not yet verified: this server's registry entry declares environment variables (an API key or similar) that our sandbox does not supply, so we never saw its MCP handshake.Unverified

Unverified: 5 categories

Categories scored 0 because our sandbox run of this package has not given us the schema these checks need to read. That is a gap on our side rather than a finding about the package, and we only credit what we can confirm, so the score stands at 0 until the capture succeeds. We are working through the fleet, so this normally clears without any action from you. How we score packages →

Install

How do I install the KiCad MCP Pro server?

KiCad MCP Pro runs locally as an npm package, launched with npx -y kicad-mcp-pro. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tools for package channels are captured by running the package in an isolated sandbox. The most recent sandbox run could not capture a tool list from this package.

Common questions

What is the KiCad MCP Pro server?

KiCad MCP Pro is listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.oaslananka/kicad-mcp-pro. Production-grade MCP server for KiCad EDA, PCB design, DRC, simulation, BOM, DFM, and manufacturing. This page covers its npm package (kicad-mcp-pro).

Is the KiCad MCP Pro server safe to use?

KiCad MCP Pro scores 50 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 20 September 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

Is the KiCad MCP Pro server still maintained?

KiCad MCP Pro is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

What licence is the KiCad MCP Pro server under?

KiCad MCP Pro declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
