The full story
Lucas Gerads built MCP servers for his LeCroy oscilloscope and a SPICE circuit simulator so Claude Code can close the loop between simulation and real hardware. Claude simulates a circuit, measures the real board on the scope, and compares the two. His blog post walks through a demo. The Hacker News thread (121 points) includes cautionary tales from others about letting agents near hardware.
