I have both Altium and Kicad experience. Can you explain further how you are setting up the AI to interface with KiCad? Is your AI having keyboard/mouse access or are you doing it only through API? Not familiar with Claude interface.
I have had good success with Claude Code combined with https://github.com/mixelpixx/Konnect. I still need to do routing manually but it is quite useful for reviews of the design and even of the final PCB.
I have it convert Altium files to Kicad and then it uses the Kicad api to control things. If you give it encouragement it should be able to convert back to Altium by parsing the format and building a tool. Supposedly I have this built though I have not validated it. You can also ask it how it would do this and it will have ideas.
