Empty block (interface shell)

info
completeness/empty-block
What it looks like
U5 (Sensor frontend) has no components yet — it's an interface shell, so it won't appear in the BOM. Populate it with the real part(s).

What it checks

A block with declared terminals but no internal components — a typed placeholder.

Why it matters

Shells are useful for sketching architecture, but they're invisible to the BOM and to internal analysis. A design full of shells looks finished and isn't — this keeps the difference visible.

How to fix it

Populate the block with its real parts when you choose them (or ask Sparky to author it from a part number). Until then the finding is just an honest progress marker.
