What Mouser does

Mouser searches Mouser Electronics for electronic components, pricing, stock, and specifications. Use it for prototype part selection, BOM sourcing, and bulk MPN workflows when comparing distributors or when DigiKey is unavailable.

Mouser is cataloged under Automation on DirSkills. Mouser comes from a repository tagged ai-skills, bom-management, claude-code, codex and design-review.

README

Excerpt

Mouser Electronics Parts Search & Analysis

Skill	Purpose
`kicad`	Schematic analysis — extracts MPNs for part lookup
`bom`	BOM management — orchestrates sourcing across distributors
`digikey`	Primary prototype source (prefer for datasheets — direct PDF links)
`spice`	Uses Mouser parametric data for behavioral SPICE models

Mouser is the secondary source for prototype orders — use when DigiKey is out of stock or has worse pricing. For production orders, see lcsc/jlcpcb. For BOM management and export workflows, see bom. For datasheets, prefer DigiKey's API (direct PDF links) — Mouser blocks automated PDF downloads.
