    "shortDescription": "Author & edit KiCad .kicad_sch from op-lists, run ERC/design checks, simulate on bundled ngspice, and import Altium schematics — no EDA install required.",
    "longDescription": "Drives the zero-dependency `akcli` CLI: parse Altium .SchDoc/.SchLib/.PcbDoc and KiCad .kicad_sch/.kicad_sym/.kicad_pcb into one normalized model, extract netlists, run ERC-lite / power-rail / BOM / pinmap / revision-diff checks, author and apply KiCad schematics from an op-list, and source real JLCPCB/LCSC parts. Bundles nine task skills — akcli-circuit-design (core mechanics), akcli-schematic-authoring, akcli-schematic-review, akcli-circuit-debug, akcli-altium-interop, akcli-parts-sourcing, akcli-jlcpcb-capabilities, akcli-design-calc (60 standards-cited engineering calculators), and akcli-setup (environment probe/repair via `akcli doctor`). KiCad is the writable target (files); Altium .SchDoc/.SchLib/.PcbDoc are read/imported into the same model, with an optional Windows live bridge to a running Altium instance — it is not a symmetric Altium↔KiCad converter.",
