Components now include boundingBox (min/max X/Y, width, height) in
get_component_list and get_component_properties responses. The SWIG
get_component_properties also includes courtyard dimensions when the
footprint defines a courtyard layer.
SWIG backend uses GetBoundingBox() and GetCourtyard(). IPC backend
tries get_item_bounding_box(), then pad-extent fallback, then falls
back to SWIG backend data when available. This ensures bounding box
data is present regardless of which backend handles the query.

KiCad 9's IPC API returns Footprint objects where fp.definition lacks
the library_link attribute, causing all component queries to fail with
"'Footprint' object has no attribute 'library_link'" warnings and
returning 0 components. This adds a hasattr check with fallback to
fp.definition.id.

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.
Add type annotations to all previously untyped functions and remove 9
suppressed error codes (call-arg, assignment, return-value, operator,
has-type, dict-item, misc, list-item, annotation-unchecked) by fixing
the underlying type issues.
Add [[tool.mypy.overrides]] with ignore_missing_imports for KiCAD-specific
modules (pcbnew, sexpdata, skip, cairosvg, kipy, PIL) so the pre-commit
mypy hook passes in its isolated venv. Add types-requests and pytest to
additional_dependencies in .pre-commit-config.yaml.
Also fixes several real bugs uncovered by stricter checks: incorrect static
calls to instance methods in swig_backend, wrong return type on get_size,
missing value param in BoardAPI.place_component, variable shadowing in
kicad_process.py, unqualified LibraryManager reference in kicad_interface,
and missing top-level Path import.

Add isort configuration (profile=black, line_length=100) to pyproject.toml,
add isort pre-commit hook, and auto-sort imports across all Python source files.

Add [tool.black] config to pyproject.toml and Black hook to
.pre-commit-config.yaml (rev 26.3.1), then auto-format all Python
source and test files with line-length=100, target-version=py310.

Phase 1 critical fixes addressing three high-priority issues:
Issue #36 - Windows IPC backend crash (os.getuid not available):
- Add platform detection to skip Unix-specific socket paths on Windows
- Use hasattr check before calling os.getuid()
- Windows now uses auto-detect fallback (named pipes)
- Maintains full Unix socket support on Linux/macOS
Issue #37 - Windows schematic file creation broken:
- Generate unique UUIDs instead of invalid all-zeros UUID
- Add explicit UTF-8 encoding for cross-platform compatibility
- Force Unix line endings (LF) to prevent Windows CRLF issues
- Update template file with valid placeholder UUID
- Fix hardcoded /tmp/ paths in wire_manager.py and pin_locator.py
Issue #35 - JLCPCB download limited to 100 parts:
- Change batch_size from 1000 to 100 to match tscircuit API limit
- Remove premature loop termination when batch < batch_size
- Add documentation explaining API limitation
- Expected result: Full ~2.5M part catalog download (40-60 minutes)
All changes maintain backward compatibility and include detailed comments.

Add KiCAD IPC API backend using kicad-python library for real-time
communication with KiCAD 9.0+. Changes now appear instantly in KiCAD
UI without manual reload.
Key changes:
- Implement IPCBackend and IPCBoardAPI classes for IPC communication
- Auto-detect IPC availability and fall back to SWIG when unavailable
- Route existing commands (route_trace, add_via, place_component, etc.)
through IPC automatically when available
- Add transaction support for proper undo/redo
- Add socket path auto-detection for Linux (/tmp/kicad/api.sock)
New commands:
- get_backend_info: Check which backend is active
Supported IPC operations:
- Board: set_size, get_board_info, save
- Routing: route_trace, add_via, add_net
- Components: place, move, delete, list
- Text: add_text, add_board_text
SWIG backend is now deprecated and will be removed when KiCAD 10.0
drops SWIG support.
Requires: kicad-python>=0.5.0, KiCAD 9.0+ with IPC enabled
