CD eda-spec2gds

Drive an open-source EDA workflow from spec to GDS using OpenClaw skills, workspace files, and CLI tools. Use when the user wants to turn a hardware spec into RTL, testbenches, synthesis results, OpenLane backend runs, GDS output, or report summaries; also use when creating, iterating, or auditing an AgentSkill for AI-driven chip design workflows.

How to improve

  1. The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
For the model run — optional
  • Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
  • A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Against the Agent Skills spec

  • warning missing-ref reference to a missing file: assets/project-template/

Process rating: all ten parameters 46/100

Will not run. References files that are not bundled: assets/project-template/
  • 0Tools and files. 1 referenced file(s) missing: assets/project-template/
  • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
  • 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
  • 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
  • 30Running it twice. 3 mutating operations with no state check
  • 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
  • 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
  • 100Steps. 84 steps
  • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
  • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1931 tokens
  • medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing

Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.

Quality signals

  • +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
  • +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
  • +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
  • -314 of 25 scripts are never mentioned in SKILL.md
  • +1No license
  • +2Single-language instructions
  • +3Description length 349: enough signal without eating the budget
  • +4Structure: 21 headings
  • +3Step-by-step instructions: 84 items
  • +4Has examples (1 code blocks)
  • +4Reference files are cited in the instructions (9 of 10)

Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 79.

ClawHub: suspicious
This skill is a disclosed EDA workflow helper, but installation and dashboard defaults create review-worthy host-privilege and data-exposure risks.
