What problem does it solve?
The DV-env-setup skill provides a repeatable way to lay down a complete DV project environment, including the directory scaffold, VCS Makefile, UVM skeletons, and environment scripts so teams can start end-to-end DV work quickly and consistently.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Generates a full project layout (rtl, dv, tb, env, seq_lib, sim, scripts, cov) and scaffolding files.
- Creates a VCS Makefile with standard switches for waves, coverage, logs, and plusargs, plus build/run targets.
- Produces UVM testbench skeletons (env, scoreboard, coverage, sequences, tests) and environment configuration files (proj.cshrc, proj.bashrc, .env).
- Sets up synopsys_sim.setup with default mappings and supports the S4/S5 end-to-end flow.
- Provides a ready-to-run path for validation of new IPs/blocks.
Quick Start
