Open-source Autonomous Circuit turns a chat prompt into an orderable PCB via JLCPCB

dee_hw · x · 2026-09-04

The open-source autonomous-circuit project on GitHub builds a "chat to board" pipeline: you describe a gadget, the AI asks a few clarifying questions, shows a plan, then designs the board and hands over everything a fab needs — copper layers, a parts list with purchasable part numbers, and placement files — ready to upload to JLCPCB for two-week delivery.

It ships as a web app with chat on the left and schematic, layout, 3D view, parts and files on the right. Reliability comes from composing boards out of nine proven circuit blocks rather than generating from scratch, and the repo includes full agent orchestration, skills, and evals.
