Inspecting the board

query_at

List the items near a point, as JSON.

Usage

query_at <x_mm> <y_mm>

Angle brackets mark required arguments and square brackets optional ones. Available in the pcb editor. You can issue this yourself, and the AI agent issues the identical command — there is no second, hidden interface.

Arguments

x_mm
Required
y_mm
Required

2 required, 0 optional.

How the agent uses it

  • The agent works in a perceive / act / verify / recover loop: it describes the design, issues query_at or another command, checks the result, and undoes the change if the check fails.
  • Commands report what they actually did. A refusal is a result, not a silent no-op — which is what lets the agent recover instead of building on a change that never happened.
  • Anything the agent can do here, you can do yourself, and the reverse.
