I built MCP servers for my oscilloscope and SPICE simulator so Claude Code can close the loop between simulation and real hardware.

Very cool idea closing the loop between simulation and real hardware.
Have you found the MCP-driven workflow reliable enough for repeated testing cycles, or does it still need manual verification at key steps?

Claude can absolutely correct itself and change the source code on the MCU and adapt. However, it also does make mistakes, such as claiming it matched the simulation when it obviously didn't. Or it might make dubious decisions e.g. bit bang a pin instead of using the dedicated uart subsystem. So, I don't let it build completely by itself.
