Grouped connector pin endpoints start off the KiCad connection grid
The three-contact passive connector input published at adom/mf40200v1-1000u-g99/cad/harness/M20-1060300-symbol-input.json generates pin endpoints at (-15.24,-2.00), (-15.24,-4.54), (-15.24,-7.08) mm using adom-symbol create --file ... --out <dir> --no-chip-outline. The 2.54 mm pitch is consistent, but the group's starting offset puts every endpoint off the standard connection grid. Native KiCad accepts and renders the file, so parse success does not catch this placement issue.
Please align electrical pin endpoints to the schematic connection grid even when group labels are present, and test grouped connectors as well as IC symbols. The project applies an explicit documented correction to y=-2.54,-5.08,-7.62 and reruns native SVG export. The cable-housing symbol also needs on_board no while remaining in the BOM; this is documented in its reproducible postprocessor rather than pretending it has PCB pads.
Related CLI documentation mismatch: preview --help describes --out as the viewer HTML path, but supplying an HTML filename returns Not a directory; passing a directory works. No shared generator fix has been released by this report.
