PCB layout is an art, and doesn't seem to map well to LLMs (I tried for shits and giggles recently). Claude in general, kind of like code, does a lot of redundant belt and suspenders stuff in the schematics it generates (if it can generate them at all). It's one of those things that's really not there yet outside of the simplest designs.

DeepPCB has an AI autorouter [1] that uses reinforcment learning and works really well. Recently they also released an AI agent that analyzes your board, proposes plans and can route your board for you [2]. They have a KiCad plugin [3] and you can try it for free.
