What it does

Datasheets is an agent skill from aklofas/kicad-happy. Extract structured specifications from electronic component datasheet PDFs — pinouts, electrical characteristics, peripherals, topology, and features. Cache extractions per project for consumption by schematic and PCB analyzers. Primary consumer infrastructure for kicad, emc, spice, and thermal analyzers. Use this skill whenever the user asks to extract, verify, or read specs from a component datasheet; when analyzers need verified IC knowledge (EN pin thresholds, PG presence, USB peripheral speed); or when a…

Its SKILL.md is about 2.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 66 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `datasheet_types/__init__.py`, `datasheet_types/base_block.py` and `datasheet_types/codec.py`).

It sits in Documents & Office. The repository describes itself as: AI coding agent skills for KiCad electronics design. Works with Claude Code and OpenAI Codex. Analyze schematics, review PCB layouts, EMC pre-compliance, SPICE simulation… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

The user asks to extract
Read specs from a component datasheet
Analyzers need verified IC knowledge (EN pin thresholds
USB peripheral speed)

Example prompts

“extract this datasheet”
“what are the specs for MPN X”
“verify datasheet extraction”
“/datasheets”

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Datasheets loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~21k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 190 tokens; SKILL.md has 846 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~190
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~2.4k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them: ~21k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

name: datasheets
description: Extract structured specifications from electronic component datasheet PDFs — pinouts, electrical characteristics, peripherals, topology, and features. Cache extractions per project for consumption by schematic and PCB analyzers. Primary consumer infrastructure for `kicad`, `emc`, `spice`, and `thermal` analyzers. Use this skill whenever the user asks to extract, verify, or read specs from a component datasheet; when analyzers need verified IC knowledge (EN pin thresholds, PG presence, USB peripheral speed); or when a review mentions datasheet coverage, extraction quality, or per-MPN specifications. Also triggers on "extract this datasheet", "what are the specs for MPN X", "verify datasheet extraction", or "check pin functions for part Y".

Datasheets Skill

Skill	Relationship
`digikey` / `mouser` / `lcsc` / `element14`	Producers — download the PDFs under `<project>/datasheets/` that this skill extracts from
`kicad`	Primary consumer — VM-001/PU-001/FS-001/PP-001/LR-001/XT-001 + Phase 4b lookup detectors (AM-001/OV-001/TJ-001/FT-001/EX-001) query extractions via `lookup(mpn)` for verified-IC knowledge
`emc`	Consumer — switching-frequency, package-Rθ_JA, and operating-voltage data sharpen EMC heuristics
`spice`	Consumer — SPICE model presence + IBIS data feed simulation-readiness checks
`thermal`	Consumer — package Rθ_JA + junction temperature limits drive Tj estimates (TS-001..TJ-001)
`bom`	Indirect — coverage of structured extractions affects BOM verification confidence

Handoff guidance: This skill is consumer infrastructure. The typical flow is distributor skill downloads PDF → datasheets skill extracts → analyzer skill queries. Use this skill directly when (a) the user asks to extract or verify a specific MPN, (b) an analyzer reports trust_level: low and the gap is per-MPN extraction quality, or (c) a new MPN was added to the BOM and downstream detectors should pick up its verified specs. Don't run this skill in isolation if the user just wants a design review — call it from the kicad workflow at the "Sync datasheets" step instead.

Purpose

Extract structured, machine-readable specifications from component datasheet PDFs and make them available to analyzer skills. Works on whatever PDFs are downloaded under <project>/datasheets/ (downloads are owned by distributor skills like digikey, mouser, lcsc, element14).

Scope

This skill owns:

Extraction schemas — canonical JSON structures for per-MPN specs. v1.4 ships 6 JSON Schema Draft 2020-12 schemas under schemas/ (base, pinout, spec_value, regulator, extraction, manifest) plus 5 v1.4 category extensions (diode, transistor, opamp, mcu, crystal). v1.3 cache format (EXTRACTION_VERSION in scripts/datasheet_extract_cache.py) is still read for compat.
Typed access layer (v1.4) — datasheet_types/ package exposes DatasheetFacts, SpecValue, Pin, Pinout, lookup(), best(), trusted(), has_data(). Recommended for all new consumers.
PDF page selection — heuristics to pick pages most likely to contain pinouts, e-chars, applications, SPICE models.
Quality scoring — v1.4 uses a three-dimension rubric (pinout completeness, base completeness, category-extension completeness, 0–100 scale). v1.3 5-dimension weighted rubric still applies to legacy caches.
Consumer APIs — scripts/datasheet_lookup.py for v1.4 typed access; scripts/datasheet_features.py for the v1.3 dict-shaped helpers (get_regulator_features, get_mcu_features, get_pin_function) — the v1.3 helpers dual-read v1.4 caches and translate to v1.3 dict shape for legacy detector code. Sunset planned for v1.6.
Verification — datasheet_verify.py (v1.3, schema-vs-usage cross-check) plus datasheet_verify_v14_extraction (v1.4, power_domain references resolve, recommended ≤ absolute, regulator pin references exist).

Non-goals

No PDF downloading. That is owned by distributor skills (digikey, mouser, lcsc, element14).
No global library. Each project's extractions live in <project>/datasheets/extracted/. There is no shared cross-project cache.

Cache location

<project>/
  design.kicad_sch
  datasheets/
    TPS61023DRLR.pdf        # downloaded by distributor skills

      manifest.json         # extraction manifest (legacy name: index.json)
      TPS61023DRLR.json     # structured extraction (this skill's output)

Extraction workflow

Run python3 skills/datasheets/scripts/plan_extraction.py <project> to generate an orchestration plan, then merge_results.py to validate and merge per-task outputs. Full scout→plan→dispatch→merge procedure: references/extraction-pipeline.md.

Consuming extractions (v1.4 typed API)

The recommended consumer surface is the typed lookup(mpn, cache_dir=...) facade plus the trust-gating helpers from datasheet_types. Import like:

python

import sys, pathlib
sys.path.insert(0, str(pathlib.Path(__file__).parent.parent / "datasheets"))
from datasheet_types import lookup, has_data, best, trusted

# Returns Optional[DatasheetFacts]. None on cache miss / stale PDF / low quality.
facts = lookup("TPS61023DRLR", cache_dir=pathlib.Path("datasheets/extracted"))
if facts is None:
    return  # heuristic-only path; no datasheet evidence available

# Field-level trust gating — every SpecValue list runs through has_data() / best() / trusted().
pu_range = facts.base.recommended_pullup_range  # Optional[list[SpecValue]]
if has_data(pu_range):
    # Most-trusted single value (first SpecValue meeting threshold, preserves extractor order).
    rec = best(pu_range, min_confidence="medium")  # Optional[SpecValue]
    if rec is not None and rec.min is not None:
        ...  # use rec.min, rec.max, rec.typ, rec.unit, rec.evidence.{page,section,confidence}

# All SpecValues at threshold (for multi-value fields like absolute_max).
hi_conf = trusted(facts.base.absolute_max.get("VDD", []), min_confidence="high")

Defensive patterns (mirrors kicad/SKILL.md § "Probing Analyzer JSON"):

lookup() returns None on cache miss, stale PDF (PDF newer than extraction), or quality score below the configured floor. Always guard with if facts is None: return.
Category extensions are optional on DatasheetFacts. facts.regulator is None when the part isn't in the regulator category — check before dereferencing.
SpecValue lists can be None (field not extracted), [] (extracted but empty), or list[SpecValue]. has_data() collapses the first two to False; pair with best() / trusted() for confidence gating.
SpecValue.min / .max / .typ are each Optional[float]. A SpecValue carrying only typ (no range) makes > / < comparisons against .min / .max raise TypeError — guard with explicit is not None chains on every numeric access.
confidence is one of "low" / "medium" / "high". Calling best() / trusted() with any other string raises ValueError.

v1.3 compat shim

Legacy detectors still call get_regulator_features(mpn) / get_mcu_features(mpn) / get_pin_function(mpn, pin) from scripts/datasheet_features.py. These dual-read v1.4 caches and translate to the v1.3 dict shape. Sunset planned for v1.6 — new code should use lookup() directly.

When to trigger this skill

Immediately after downloading datasheets via sync_datasheets_digikey.py, sync_datasheets_lcsc.py, or equivalent. Without extraction, IC-aware checks (VM-001 rail voltage, PS-001 power-good, PR-004 USB, DP-002 USB speed classification) fall back to heuristics on unknown ICs.
Before running analyzers on a new project where datasheets are present but datasheets/extracted/ is empty — the analyzers won't produce the extractions themselves.
When a review flags low trust level due to missing manufacturer evidence: extracting the ICs referenced by power regulators, MCUs, and high-speed peripherals typically flips trust_level: low → mixed or high.
When a user asks for pin verification ("verify U1 pin names match datasheet") — this skill's cached extraction is the authoritative source.

Can I use Datasheets in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add aklofas/kicad-happy --skill datasheets -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/datasheets, .gemini/skills/datasheets, .github/skills/datasheets and .opencode/skills/datasheets in your project.

What does Datasheets need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Datasheets needs Python for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (python3). Our summary lists: Python 3.

Does Datasheets access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Datasheets safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.

What licence does Datasheets use?

Datasheets is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Datasheets use?

About 2.4k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 9.8k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 19k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
