Holy cow this is awesome! The integration of project context with an LLM enabled more than the sum of its parts when it comes to information access.
When designing circuits for fast iterations, you're constantly managing risk and time expenditure; this leads to copying a lot of "flight heritage" circuits so to speak.
With the LLM, I'm able to get highly condensed starting points for better circuits when it comes to simplicity, understandability, or performance. As of right now, all I have to do is fact check the solution which is much easier than synthesizing one myself. I'm citing the example where I got it to design me a viable high gain analog frontend that meets my gain, bandwidth, noise, and biasing requirements.
Very excited to hit this milestones!

Agree with OP that the raw models aren't that useful for schematic/pcb design.
It's why we build flux from the ground up to provide the models with the right context. The models are great moderators but poor sources of great knowledge.
Here are some great use cases:
