Please keep in mind that we are currently in feature freeze so no
stitching via code (or any other new feature for that matter) is going
make it into the upcoming stable release. We are already behind where I
had hoped to be so I do not want to jeopardize pushing the stable
release back any
Since this has gotten a lot of attention, I figured I'd share my
workarounds.
KiCad is missing a few features for good RF layout. There are a few things
which I use frequently in other EDA tools which haven't been implemented
quite yet by KiCad. Via stitching is one of them. The methods

So the idea of implementing manual vias does not interfere with script.
I uploaded a demo of what i have right now:

It doesn't need to go into main tree right now but it's so obvious

Hi Mikk,
I hope that I find this or next weekend some time to upload a recent version. I
need to merge the actual KiCad code and have to do more testing. It's a tool to
automate the stitching using the scripting window and also with a simple
dialog, roughly inspired by Altium.
Thanks,

Can you share some link or demo?

Hi Mikk,
perhaps you have missed that; I've written a while ago that I'm working on a
VIA stitching tool. It's mostly written as KiCad Python script with minimal
additions to the scripting engine. A first version (as proof of concept) is
almost ready and I've used it for my latest PCB. I need
