Use when checking whether this machine's Python, EDA tools and licenses can actually run VeriPower's stages; not for any pipeline stage, module state, or design work.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
Files
Environment Pre-check
Pre-pipeline, own session: you report, and change nothing — no module file, no event, no
kernel.py. Nothing in the pipeline depends on this having run.
<skill> is this skill's own base directory, named on the first line of this file.
1. Presence
<skill>/../../docs/eda-env.md lists what must be true and what each miss costs. Probe every row
of it, and timeout every probe: an unreachable license server hangs the tool.
2. Smoke
Presence is not a checkout. Ask which stages to cover, then per row write the smallest input that forces the checkout and run it in a temp dir. A row passes iff it produces the file below — a tool that took the license and did nothing still exits 0.
| Checkout | Hinges on | Produces | Gates |
| Design Compiler | compile_ultra (the DC-Ultra checkout — the flow runs no plain compile), then write | the netlist | synthesis |
| PrimeTime | report_timing on that netlist | the timing report | timing-analysis |
| PrimeTime-PX | set power_enable_analysis TRUE + report_power | the power report | power-analysis |
| VCS + UVM | compiling uvm_pkg.sv and uvm_dpi.cc from UVM_HOME, then running simv | whatever the TB writes | simulation, power-analysis |
| VCS coverage | -cm line+cond+branch+tgl+fsm, then urg -report cov_merge -format text | cov_merge/dashboard.txt | simulation coverage gate |
| Verdi / FSDB | -debug_access+all -kdb -lca + a ucli $fsdbDumpvars, then fsdbreport | the fsdbreport output | simulation waveform, simulation-triage |
| SpyGlass Lint | current_goal lint/lint_rtl + run_goal | that goal's moresimple.rpt | lint-cdc |
| SpyGlass CDC | cdc/cdc_setup, cdc/cdc_setup_check, cdc/cdc_verify_struct, each run_goal | each goal's moresimple.rpt | lint-cdc |
The three VCS rows each compile their own simv: coverage and FSDB instrumentation take effect at compile time. A row whose tool or variable already failed §1 is skipped, not failed.
3. Report
Per row: pass or fail, and the stages it costs. Close with the stage list runnable now.
lmstatexplains, the smoke decides: a feature the server lists can still fail to check out, and lmstat missing or timing out is not a failure.- Print
exportlines for the user; never edit their shell config.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
