Add comprehensive advanced KiCad features and fix MCP compatibility issues

- Implement 3D model analysis and mechanical constraints checking
- Add advanced DRC rule customization for HDI, RF, and automotive applications
- Create symbol library management with analysis and validation tools
- Implement PCB layer stack-up analysis with impedance calculations
- Fix Context parameter validation errors causing client failures
- Add enhanced tool annotations with examples for better LLM compatibility
- Include comprehensive test coverage improvements (22.21% coverage)
- Add CLAUDE.md documentation for development guidance

New Advanced Tools:
• 3D model analysis: analyze_3d_models, check_mechanical_constraints
• Advanced DRC: create_drc_rule_set, analyze_pcb_drc_violations
• Symbol management: analyze_symbol_library, validate_symbol_library

+
+## Development Commands
+
+### Essential Commands
+- `make install` - Install dependencies using uv (creates .venv automatically)
+- `make run` - Start the KiCad MCP server (`uv run python main.py`)
+- `make test` - Run all tests with pytest
+- `make test <file>` - Run specific test file
+- `make lint` - Run linting with ruff and mypy (`uv run ruff check kicad_mcp/ tests/` + `uv run mypy kicad_mcp/`)
+- `make format` - Format code with ruff (`uv run ruff format kicad_mcp/ tests/`)
+- `make build` - Build package with uv
+- `make clean` - Clean build artifacts
+
+### Development Environment
+- Uses `uv` for dependency management (Python 3.10+ required)
+- Virtual environment is automatically created in `.venv/`
+- Configuration via `.env` file (copy from `.env.example`)
+
+## Architecture
+
+### MCP Server Components
+This project implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for KiCad electronic design automation. The architecture follows MCP patterns with three main component types:
+
+**Resources** (read-only data):
+- `kicad://projects` - List KiCad projects
+- `kicad://project/{project_path}` - Project details
+- `kicad://drc_report/{project_path}` - DRC reports
+- `kicad://bom/{project_path}` - Bill of materials
+- `kicad://netlist/{project_path}` - Circuit netlists
+- `kicad://patterns/{project_path}` - Circuit pattern analysis
+
+**Tools** (actions/computations):
+- Project management (open projects, analysis)
+- DRC checking with KiCad CLI integration
+- BOM generation and export
+- PCB visualization and thumbnails
+- Circuit pattern recognition
+- File export operations
+
+**Prompts** (reusable templates):
+- PCB debugging assistance
+- BOM analysis workflows
+- Circuit pattern identification
+- DRC troubleshooting
+
+### Key Modules
+
+#### Core Server (`kicad_mcp/server.py`)
+- FastMCP server initialization with lifespan management
+- Registers all resources, tools, and prompts
+- Signal handling for graceful shutdown
+- Cleanup handlers for temporary directories
+
+#### Configuration (`kicad_mcp/config.py`)
+- Platform-specific KiCad paths (macOS/Windows/Linux)
+- Environment variable handling (`KICAD_SEARCH_PATHS`, `KICAD_USER_DIR`)
+- Component library mappings and default footprints
+- Timeout and display constants
+
+#### Context Management (`kicad_mcp/context.py`)
+- Lifespan context with KiCad module availability detection
+- Shared cache across requests
+- Application state management
+
+#### Security Features
+- Path validation utilities in `utils/path_validator.py`
+- Secure subprocess execution in `utils/secure_subprocess.py`
+- Input sanitization for KiCad CLI operations
+- Boundary validation for file operations
+
+### KiCad Integration Strategy
+- **Primary**: KiCad CLI (`kicad-cli`) for all operations
+- **Fallback**: Direct file parsing for basic operations
+- **Detection**: Automatic KiCad installation detection across platforms
+- **Isolation**: Subprocess-based execution for security
+

+
+## Development Notes
+
+### Adding New Features
+1. Identify component type (resource/tool/prompt)
+2. Add implementation to appropriate module in `kicad_mcp/`
+3. Register in `server.py` create_server() function
+4. Use lifespan context for shared state and caching
+5. Include progress reporting for long operations
+
+### KiCad CLI Integration
+- All KiCad operations use CLI interface for security
+- CLI detection in `utils/kicad_cli.py`
+- Path validation prevents directory traversal
+- Subprocess timeouts prevent hanging operations
+
+### Testing
+- Unit tests in `tests/unit/`
+- Test markers: `unit`, `integration`, `requires_kicad`, `slow`, `performance`
+- Coverage target: 80% (configured in pyproject.toml)
+- Run with: `pytest` or `make test`
+
+### Configuration
+- Environment variables override defaults in `config.py`
+- `.env` file support for development
+- Platform detection for KiCad paths
+- Search path expansion with `~` support
+
+### Entry Point
+- `main.py` is the server entry point
+- Handles logging setup and .env file loading
+- Manages server lifecycle with proper cleanup
+- Uses asyncio for MCP server execution
