| v0.1 | archived | main (CM5 carrier) and mic bar (4 mics) on a cable | Gates GREEN on both boards. Never ordered. |
The boards are designed as code and checked with the
Via EE Workcenter: KiCad 10,
ngspice and FreeRouting, driven by workcenter. Each board folder holds a
design.py; the KiCad files beside it are generated from it.

26 parts, built around the USBLC6-2SC6, M2.5, DF40C-100DS-0.4V and BAT54WS. 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.
From the ThyFriendlyFox/agentcast-prototype repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/v0.1/main/agentcast_main.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/v0.1/main/agentcast_main.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask ThyFriendlyFox before reusing the design.
