What it does
Pcbway is an agent skill from aklofas/kicad-happy. PCBWay PCB fabrication and assembly — turnkey/consigned assembly, design rules, ordering workflow. Alternative to JLCPCB for manufacturing. Use with KiCad. Use this skill when the user mentions PCBWay, needs turnkey assembly (PCBWay sources parts by MPN), has parts not available on LCSC, needs assembled boards with non-LCSC components, wants to compare PCBWay vs JLCPCB, or needs assembly with parts sourced globally rather than from LCSC only. For gerber/CPL export, stencil ordering, and BOM management, see the…
Its SKILL.md is about 2.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It works with EasyEDA. 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 mentions PCBWay
- Needs turnkey assembly (PCBWay sources parts by MPN)
- Has parts not available on LCSC
- Needs assembled boards with non-LCSC components
Example prompts
- “/pcbway”
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- In KiCad, ensure MPN and Manufacturer fields are populated in symbol properties
- Export via Edit Symbol Fields > Export CSV
- Reformat columns to match PCBWay's expected format (add Line#, Qty, Type columns)
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0684046. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are csv).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
api-partner.pcbway.compcbway.com
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
Pcbway loads about 2.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 134 tokens; SKILL.md has 962 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- PCBWay PCB fabrication and assembly — turnkey/consigned assembly, design rules, ordering workflow. Alternative to JLCPCB for manufacturing. Use with KiCad. Use this skill when the user mentions PCBWay, needs turnkey assembly (PCBWay sources parts by MPN), has parts not available on LCSC, needs assembled boards with non-LCSC components, wants to compare PCBWay vs JLCPCB, or needs assembly with parts sourced globally rather than from LCSC only. For gerber/CPL export, stencil ordering, and BOM management, see the `bom` skill.
PCBWay — PCB Fabrication & Assembly
PCBWay is a PCB fabrication and assembly service based in Shenzhen, China. It is an alternative to JLCPCB with similar capabilities and pricing.
Typical usage: Order bare prototype PCBs + framed stencil from PCBWay during prototyping (parts sourced separately from DigiKey/Mouser, hand-assembled in lab). For production runs (100s qty), order fully assembled boards from PCBWay using turnkey component sourcing (PCBWay sources parts by MPN). JLCPCB is the primary alternative. For BOM management, gerber/CPL export, and stencil ordering, see the bom skill.

Key Differences from JLCPCB
| Feature | PCBWay | JLCPCB |
|---|---|---|
| Component sourcing | Turnkey (PCBWay sources by MPN) | LCSC parts library (you provide LCSC PNs) |
| Parts library | No fixed library — sources globally | LCSC library (basic/extended parts) |
| Assembly fee model | Quote-based per project | Per-part fees (basic free, extended $3 each) |
| Pricing turnaround | Manual quote, 1–2 business days | Instant online pricing |
| BOM format | MPN-based (manufacturer part numbers) | LCSC PN-based |
Plan around manual quoting. PCBWay assembly requires a human-reviewed quote before you can place the order — typically 1-2 business days after uploading files. JLCPCB shows assembly pricing instantly at checkout. If you're prototyping and need to iterate quickly, the JLCPCB feedback loop is much tighter. PCBWay's value is in sourcing parts JLCPCB can't, not in turnaround speed.
When to use PCBWay over JLCPCB:
- Parts not available on LCSC — PCBWay sources globally by MPN
- Need turnkey sourcing — provide MPNs, PCBWay handles procurement
- Prefer quote-based pricing over per-part fee model
- Need consigned/kitted assembly (you ship parts to PCBWay)
- Timeline allows for the manual-quote turnaround
Assembly Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Turnkey | PCBWay sources all parts by MPN — you just provide the BOM |
| Partial turnkey | PCBWay sources some parts, you supply others |
| Consigned/Kitted | You supply all parts, PCBWay assembles |
BOM Format for Assembly
PCBWay accepts XLS, XLSX, or CSV BOMs.

MPN | Manufacturer Part Number — PCBWay sources by this |
Manufacturer | Manufacturer name |
Description | Part description |
Package | Footprint/package name |
Type | SMD, THT (through-hole), or Hybrid |
For turnkey, the MPN is the critical field — PCBWay uses it to source parts from their global supply chain.
KiCad BOM Export for PCBWay
- In KiCad, ensure MPN and Manufacturer fields are populated in symbol properties
- Export via Edit Symbol Fields > Export CSV
- Reformat columns to match PCBWay's expected format (add Line#, Qty, Type columns)
For gerber export settings and CPL format, see the bom skill — both JLCPCB and PCBWay use the same formats.

Ordering Workflow
Prototype Order (Bare PCB + Stencil)
- Export gerbers from KiCad (see
bomskill for export settings) - Upload gerbers to
https://www.pcbway.com/orderonline.aspx— configure layers, thickness, color, qty - Order a framed stencil separately at
https://www.pcbway.com/stencil.aspx - Order — PCBs and stencil typically arrive in ~1 week
Production Order (Assembled Boards)
- Export gerbers from KiCad (see
bomskill for export settings) - Export BOM as CSV with MPN, Manufacturer, Description, Package, Type columns
- Export CPL (centroid/placement file) as CSV (see
bomskill for format) - Upload gerbers to PCBWay — configure PCB specs
- Select "PCB Assembly" — choose Turnkey, Partial Turnkey, or Consigned
- Upload BOM and centroid files
- Add assembly drawings/photos if needed (recommended for complex boards)
- PCBWay reviews files and provides quote
- Confirm and order
Tips
- MPN is what matters — unlike JLCPCB (LCSC PNs), PCBWay sources globally by Manufacturer Part Number
- Turnkey is easiest — just provide MPNs in BOM, PCBWay handles sourcing
- Assembly requires manual quoting — unlike JLCPCB's instant pricing, PCBWay reviews your files and provides a custom quote (typically 1-2 business days). Factor this into your timeline.
- Assembly drawings help — submit photos or annotated PDFs for complex placement
- Lead time varies — turnkey assembly depends on component sourcing time; check with PCBWay
- Rotation offsets — PCBWay may have different rotation conventions than KiCad; verify with assembly drawings
- Solder mask colors — more options than JLCPCB (includes purple, matt variants)
- Edge clearance — keep copper >=0.3mm from board edge
