This requires Agent mode to place and group the PCB components. You currently have comment-only access, so I’ll need either edit permission from the owner or an editable fork; then I can group power, audio/XLR, Pico controls, Pi/CAN interfaces, and connectors, and verify overlaps and board bounds.

Agent mode is needed to place and group the PCB components. Click the button to continue; because you have comment-only access, we’ll also need an editable fork or owner-granted edit permission.

I’ll create an editable fork if required, inspect the board and component geometry, then place everything in functional groups and check for overlaps and out-of-bounds parts.

I created an editable fork and confirmed the board is 160 × 100 mm, two-layer, with 32 physical footprints. I’m now reorganizing it into mechanical controls, compute/display, audio, and power groups while preserving mounting-hole positions.

The fork is being placed now. The board is dense because the speaker and display consume most of the area, so the placement pass is iterating to clear mechanical overlaps without breaking the control and audio grouping.

Placed all 32 PCB footprints on an editable fork: PiStrument – grouped placement. Controls, resistors, display/compute, audio, power, and mechanical parts are grouped; placement has zero body overlaps, keepout violations, or out-of-bounds parts.
