Select python backend for KiCad 7

KiCad seems to be using a different python to my system. How am I supposed to install kikit? Do I tell KiCad to use the python I use for everything else (if so, how) or is there a way to pip install to whatever kicad is using? Also, is that shell button supposed to do anything or is it decoration? Thanks for looking :slight_smile:

From my terminal

~ python --version
Python 3.11.2
~ python3 --version
Python 3.11.2

From PCBnew > Scripting Console

You just need to follow the instructions as provided by KiKit:
