Questions

What parts does the G2-pico kicad use?

4 parts, built around the SC0918. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the G2-pico kicad KiCad files?

From the skmp/g2-pico repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is g2_modem_pcb/g2-pico-kicad.kicad_pcb and its schematic g2_modem_pcb/g2-pico-kicad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the G2-pico kicad design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the BSD-3-Clause licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
