Footprint Inspection
Worked for 1 min 4 sec
The board needs both placement and routing: it has 91 airwires, 14 copper-overlap errors, and several parts extend beyond the circular outline. I’m correcting full-board placement first—preserving ENC1 exactly at the origin and the ESP32 antenna edge/keepout—then I’ll route the cleaned layout.

Received notification from "PCB Placement Cleanup" that it finished — picking the work back up.
Thought for 13 sec
The placement executor has finished; I’m reconciling its applied result against the hard centered-encoder, antenna, edge-access, overlap, and board-bound constraints now. If placement is valid, I’ll proceed directly into USB breakout, neckdowns, and auto-routing.
Worked for 1 min 40 sec
Placement auto-layout was applied and verified:
- ENC1 is exactly (0.000, 0.000) mm
- Zero component-body overlaps, out-of-board parts, keepout violations, or edge-placement violations
- U1 antenna placement and edge connectors remain correctly constrained
Routing is blocked by pre-existing footprint defects: JP1 and U2 contain overlapping pads assigned to different nets. Auto-routing would remove those pins from their nets, so I stopped rather than corrupt connectivity. 90 airwires remain; correcting the authoritative footprints for JP1 and U2 is required before routing can continue.
