Atlas-Holding
Chat-driven local R&D orchestration with persistent tasks: a local Ollama model works through a plan, reusing numeric and RC simulation engines, with code tasks handed to the existing engine only when their dependencies are met.
Summary rewritten from the vendor site because the catalog version did not match it.
What it does and how it connects
Atlas Holding is a local, chat-driven R&D orchestration tool with persistent tasks, written in French. The local chat keeps the project and its answers, shows the full dossier (concept, hypotheses, proposed experiments, success criteria, steps and unknowns), the available calculations and the state of each task.
A local Ollama model works through a plan of at most eight tasks in an acyclic graph. The coordinator reuses the existing numeric and RC engines, and a circuit run takes an ngspice configuration with a verified executable and SHA-256 hash. Code tasks are handed to the existing engine only after their dependencies are met, and the chat issues no grant and no DONE status: handed over means neither executed nor finished.
The R&D path lets the user clarify an objective, consult a proposed dossier, compute numerical models and RC circuits, then transmit the admissible software tasks to the engine. If the RC simulator is missing or fails, its dependent tasks stay deferred while admissible independent work continues.
Alternatives
Compare side by side- eda-agent (MOREmbedded)
An MCP server for live Altium sessions with a SPICE simulation workflow, rather than a local chat that reuses numeric and RC engines through a plan.
- offgrid-hardhub
A description-to-board agent loop in real KiCad that simulates supply impedance and load step in ngspice, rather than a chat-driven R&D orchestrator.
- circuitron
An agent-driven PCB prototyper that turns natural-language requirements into SKiDL scripts and KiCad files, rather than a local R&D chat with persistent tasks.
- kicad-mcp-pro
An MCP server exposing KiCad schematic, PCB, ERC/DRC, DFM, BOM and manufacturing export workflows, rather than a local ngspice RC simulation chat.
- universal-netlist
An MCP server that reads and queries electrical schematics and netlists, rather than a chat that runs numeric and RC calculations.
Recurring errors it addresses
Error Index entries this tool is built to reduce or work around.
- 15 public Xyce regression decks run through ngspice and spice-ts: 12 failed in both engines, mostly on Xyce measurement syntax and dialect rejections, and all six AC decks failed; SPICE netlists still do not travel between simulators.Error Index
- SPICEBridge, an MCP server letting an agent simulate circuits in ngspice, shipped both built-in Sallen-Key filter templates wired for positive feedback; nobody saw it because the ideal op-amp model has no dynamics, but with a single-pole op-amp model the output ran to 7e297 V and ngspice aborted, and the Butterworth values were also off.Error Index
