Mechanical application of the `.gitattributes` rules from the prior commit.
All 50 files differ only in line endings — verified by
`git diff --cached --ignore-all-space` being empty.
Before: main had 42 CRLF + 27 LF Python files plus mixed-ending in YAML,
templates, and shell scripts. After: every text file is LF (except the
Windows-native *.ps1, *.bat scripts which remain CRLF per gitattributes).
This eliminates the noisy-diff failure mode seen in PR #102, where a
small logic change produced a 918-line diff due to whole-file CRLF→LF
conversion.
- Update schematic version from 20230121 (KiCAD 7) to 20240101 (KiCAD 9)
- Replace invalid all-zeros UUIDs in template files with valid UUIDs
- Add post-copy UUID regeneration to ensure each project gets unique UUID
- Add UTF-8 encoding and Unix line endings for cross-platform compatibility
Fixes the root cause where templates were copied with invalid UUIDs and
outdated version format, causing KiCAD 9.0.x to reject the schematic files.

Verified by live test: created a fresh schematic via MCP, result shows
format version 20250114, 0 _TEMPLATE_ hits, 0 (lib_id -100) hits, 24
real components placed cleanly.
--- Format version bump (20230121 KiCAD 7 -> 20250114 KiCAD 9) ---
Files: python/templates/*.kicad_sch, python/commands/project.py,
python/commands/schematic.py
Root cause: the MCP server targets KiCAD 9 exclusively - pcbnew.pyd is
compiled for KiCAD 9.0 / Python 3.11.5, and server.ts explicitly selects
the KiCAD 9 bundled Python on Windows. Generating new schematics with a
2-year-old format tag caused a spurious 'This file was created with an
older KiCAD version' warning on every newly created schematic.
--- Remove corrupt _TEMPLATE_* placed-symbol blocks ---
File: python/templates/template_with_symbols_expanded.kicad_sch
Root cause: the expanded template was generated by the old sexpdata
serializer (same corruption PR #40 fixed for DynamicSymbolLoader add-path).
The serializer converted the string 'Device:R' to integer -100, producing
(lib_id -100) instead of (lib_id Device:R). KiCAD cannot resolve an
integer as a library reference and crashes with a null-pointer when the
user attempts to select these symbols. They appeared as grey _TEMPLATE_R?,
_TEMPLATE_C?, _TEMPLATE_U_REG? etc. ~5000mm off-sheet - invisible during
normal work but triggering a crash on accidental box-select.
Discovered via live testing on a real JLCPCB/KiCAD 9 project.
