openada
v0.4.0by simra-tech · author: Simra Tech
OpenADA, from Simra Tech, puts a contract between a design agent and the EDA tools that do the real work. The agent states an intent (simulate, check DRC, compare LVS) and a deterministic driver turns it into the native tool's command line, files and run policy. The design files stay authoritative. The plugin ships 11 skills for ASIC timing, analog characterization, layout closure and simulation review. MIT.
Open agent-EDA contracts, deterministic drivers, and tool-independent engineering skills.
What openada does, in the publisher's words
The open interface between agents and EDA.
Versioned engineering intent in. Auditable engineering evidence out.
OpenADA is building the open semantic boundary between design agents and deterministic EDA tools. An agent states an engineering intent, netlist a schematic, run a simulation, check DRC, compare LVS, and a driver translates it into the native tool's CLI, API, files, environment, and run policy. OpenADA returns compact evidence for the agent's next decision while the native design files and EDA artifacts remain authoritative.
- execution.status: completed means the native process ran.
- engineering.status: pass means the operation's fixed assertion passed.
- A successful simulation establishes valid analysis evidence; it does not by itself establish that the circuit meets its specification.
- DRC clean and LVS match do not establish circuit performance or foundry signoff.
