3e329cbf6b fix: route_pad_to_pad auto-inserts via when pads are on different copper layers
- Detects F.Cu<->B.Cu layer mismatch in route_pad_to_pad
- Splits route into: trace on start layer + via at midpoint + trace on end layer
- route_trace description warns: use route_pad_to_pad for cross-layer routing
- route_pad_to_pad description highlights automatic via insertion

ec1939bef4 fix(copper-pour): add outline parameter and fallback to board outline
Two issues fixed:
1. TypeScript schema was missing the outline parameter entirely,
   so MCP clients couldn't send pour boundary points.
2. Python code read "points" key but schema defined "outline" key.

Now accepts "outline" (with "points" as fallback for backwards
compatibility). When no outline is provided, automatically uses
the board edge bounding box as the pour boundary.

f0d738fff1 feat: add route_pad_to_pad tool
Convenience wrapper around route_trace that eliminates the need for
separate get_pad_position calls before routing.

- Accepts fromRef/fromPad/toRef/toPad instead of raw coordinates
- Automatically looks up pad positions from board footprints
- Auto-detects net from pad assignment (overridable via net param)
- Returns fromPad/toPad position info in response
- Saves ~2 tool calls (64+ calls for a full TMC2209 board) vs 3-step flow

Registered in: routing.py, kicad_interface.py (dispatch), routing.ts (MCP)

b33d6e22fd fix: project-local library resolution + copy_routing_pattern geometric fallback + TypeScript tool
- fix: DynamicSymbolLoader reads project sym-lib-table before global dirs
  add_schematic_component now finds symbols from project-local .kicad_sym files
  project_path derived automatically from schematic file path

- fix: place_component reloads FootprintLibraryManager with project_path
  new boardPath parameter passed to place_component tool (TypeScript + Python)
  _handle_place_component wrapper recreates LibraryManager per project

- fix: copy_routing_pattern geometric fallback when pads have no nets
  primary filter: net-based (when pads are assigned to nets)
  fallback: bounding box of source footprint pads +5mm tolerance
  filterMethod field in response indicates which mode was used

- feat: register copy_routing_pattern as MCP tool in routing.ts
  sourceRefs, targetRefs, includeVias, traceWidth parameters

Live tested: ESP32 + 2x TMC2209 in Test3 project
  13 traces U2 routed, copy_routing_pattern copied all 13 to U3
  offset Y+30mm correct, 26 total traces verified

2945b52eae feat: Add missing routing/component tools and fix SWIG/UUID bugs
New MCP tools added (TypeScript layer):
- Routing: delete_trace, query_traces, get_nets_list, modify_trace,
  create_netclass, route_differential_pair, refill_zones (with SWIG warning)
- Component: get_component_pads, get_component_list, get_pad_position,
  place_component_array, align_components, duplicate_component

Bug fixes:
- routing.py: Fix SwigPyObject UUID comparison (str() -> m_Uuid.AsString())
- routing.py: Fix SWIG iterator invalidation after board.Remove()
  by converting board.Tracks() to list() before iteration
- routing.py: Add board.SetModified() and clear Python refs after Remove()
  to prevent dangling SWIG pointers crashing subsequent calls
- routing.py: Wrap each track access in try/except in query_traces()
  to gracefully skip invalid track objects after bulk delete
- routing.py: Add missing return statement (mypy fix)
- library.py: Fix search_footprints param mapping search_term->pattern
- library.py: Fix fp.name -> fp.full_name field access
- library.py: Accept both 'pattern' and 'search_term' parameter names
- library.py: Add library filter support in search_footprints
- library.py: Fix loop variable shadowing Path object (mypy fix)
- design_rules.py: Add type annotation for violation_counts (mypy fix)

Contribution guidelines followed (CONTRIBUTING.md):
- black python/ applied (3 touched files pass without changes)
- mypy python/ passes with 0 errors on all changed files
- npx prettier --write applied to changed TypeScript files
- npm run build passes (tsc --noEmit: 0 errors)
- Commit messages follow feat:/fix: convention

Note on diff size: The large insertion/deletion count in the changed files
is due to black and prettier reformatting previously unformatted code
(missing trailing commas, quote style, line length). The actual logic
changes are limited to the 6 files listed above.

Note: refill_zones has known SWIG segfault risk (see KNOWN_ISSUES.md).
Prefer IPC backend (KiCAD open) or zone fill via KiCAD UI.
