KiCad 10.0.7 stable CLI acceptance — AMD2700X Ubuntu

• Recorded: 2026-10-20
• Primary release line: KiCad 10.0.x
• Executed version: /usr/bin/kicad-cli version → 10.0.7
• Machine: amd2700x, Ubuntu 24.04, Linux 7.0.0-38-generic, x86-64
• Canary owner: KiCad MCP Pro
• Clean canary source SHA: 48e82e44c7ec0850f74d861cece17d7149f17759
• Code isolation: detached clean Git worktree, separate artifact directory; pre-existing working files were not modified.
• Official 10.0.7 release notes and source tag: confirmed; GitHub tag object 93a8a4827b0b2a01a6d1599733e6964e6ea94cf9.

Executed command

KICAD_CANARY_KICAD_CLI=/usr/bin/kicad-cli PYTHONPATH="$CLEAN_MCP_ROOT/src:$CLEAN_MCP_ROOT"   "$MCP_ORIGINAL_VENV/bin/python" scripts/kicad_canary.py run     --artifacts "$CANARY_ARTIFACTS" --kicad-range 10.0.x

The clean source tree used the existing installed Python dependencies, while all CLI files were generated under an isolated /tmp artifact directory. The installed Ubuntu KiCad package was used, not an independently downloaded official AppImage; an AppImage digest is therefore not claimed.

Results

Validation	Observed result
KiCad CLI version	PASS — 10.0.7
Canary result records	32/32 expected outcomes ok=true
Executed probes	31; zero failed
Optional skip	1 — Allegro CLI importer not advertised in help
Failure fixture inventory	Empty
Manufacturing exports	Enabled and produced
Semantic differential	match
Deliberate error probes	Two expected violation exit codes (5); read-only destination failure code 4
Generated reports	DRC, ERC, BOM, netlist, schematic/PCB PDFs, drill, Gerbers, IPC-2581, 3D exports, render and snapshots
Special paths	Paths with spaces and Unicode board statistics checked

The existing synthetic clean-led-kicad10 PCB fixture returned 17 DRC violations and 4 unconnected items, matching the archived 10.0.5 baseline count. Its schematic currently reports 3 ERC findings (2 dangling labels, 1 multiple-net-name warning) despite the fixture's legacy "clean" name. The canary is green because the owning contract checks command behavior, failure semantics, artifact inventory and differential shape; it does not establish that the fixture has no electrical design errors. Updating the verified CLI compatibility patch does not assert design correctness.

Evidence integrity

• summary.json SHA-256: 8201e0ce8a83dc468efccd2ec1e752de24349e8e343cf533d346900090332748 (full; generated output kept outside Git)
• failing-fixtures.txt: empty
• Historical 10.0.5 AppImage result retained unchanged.

The tested CLI surface supports promoting kicad.latestVerified to 10.0.7 for the 10.0.x primary line. This is not an endorsement of KiCad 11, a GUI IPC live acceptance claim, or a multi-platform KiCad binary certification.
