# SPICEBridge

AI-powered circuit design through simulation — an [MCP](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server that gives language models direct access to SPICE circuit simulation via ngspice. Describe a circuit in plain English and let the AI handle netlist generation, simulation, measurement, and spec verification.

## Features

- **28 tools** covering the full circuit design workflow
- **11 built-in templates** with automatic component value calculation (E24 series)
- **Simulation**: AC sweep, transient, DC operating point
- **Measurement**: bandwidth, gain, DC levels, transient metrics, power
- **Monte Carlo & worst-case analysis** under component tolerances
- **Multi-stage composition** — connect circuit stages with automatic port mapping
- **Model wizard** — generate SPICE `.lib` models from datasheet parameters
- **KiCad export** — output `.kicad_sch` schematics
- **Web viewer** — interactive schematic viewer in the browser
- **Cloud setup wizard** — one-command deployment with Cloudflare tunnels (`spicebridge setup-cloud`)
- **Spec verification** — compare results against design targets

## Install

```bash
pip install spicebridge
```

## Requirements

- Python 3.10+
- [ngspice](https://ngspice.sourceforge.io/) installed and on PATH

## Quick Start

### Local (Claude Code / stdio)

Add to your `.mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "spicebridge": {
      "command": "spicebridge"
    }
  }
}
```

### Cloud (Streamable HTTP)

```bash
spicebridge --transport streamable-http --port 8000
```

### Cloud Setup Wizard

For guided Cloudflare tunnel setup:

```bash
spicebridge setup-cloud          # interactive (named tunnel)
spicebridge setup-cloud --quick  # quick tunnel (no account needed)
```

Handles server startup, tunnel configuration, API key generation, and displays connection info when ready.

## Example

```
1. load_template("rc_lowpass_1st", specs={"f_3dB_hz": 1000})
   -> netlist with R=1.6k, C=100nF, circuit_id: "a1b2c3d4"

2. run_ac_analysis(circuit_id, start_freq=1, stop_freq=1e6)
   -> frequency response data

3. measure_bandwidth(circuit_id)
   -> f_3dB_hz: 995

4. compare_specs(circuit_id, specs={"f_3dB_hz": {"target": 1000, "tolerance_pct": 5}})
   -> PASS

5. draw_schematic(circuit_id)
   -> schematic SVG
```
