alt Hacker NewsI'm in the same loop where I find the more access I give it to systems and feedback mechanisms the more powerful it is. There's a lot of leverage in building those feedback systems. With the obvious caveat about footguns :P
Gave one of the repos a star as it's a cool example of what people are building with AI. Most common question on HN seems to be "what are people building". Well, stuff like this.

Hear, hear! I’ve got my altium-cli repo open source in Github as well, which is a vibe coded CLI for editing vibe reverse engineered Altium PCB projects. It’s not yet ready for primetime (I’m finishing up the file format reverse engineering this weekend) and the code quality is probably something twelve year old me would have been embarrassed by, but I can already use it and Claude/Gemini to automate a lot of the tedious parts of PCB design like part selection and footprints. I’m almost to the point where Claude Code can use it for the entire EE workflow from part selection to firmware, minus the PCB routing which I still do by hand.
I just ain’t wasting time blogging about it so unless someone stumbles onto it randomly by lurking on HN, they won’t know that Claude Code can now work on PCBs.
