najaeda/naja-scope

Overview

najaeda/naja-scope is an MCP server that gives AI agents direct access to SystemVerilog and Verilog netlists. It supports tracing connectivity, walking the hierarchy, and finding source references, without loading the full RTL into the conversation. The tool is built on najaeda and written in Python.

Best for

Best for
Hardware engineers and EDA developers who want AI agents to introspect SystemVerilog and Verilog netlists without bloating the prompt with RTL.

Use cases

• Trace a signal through a netlist to find its drivers and fanout
• Walk the hierarchy to see how a module instance is instantiated
• Jump an AI agent to the netlist object's source line for review

How to use

Install

pip install naja-scope        # pulls najaeda and the MCP runtime from PyPI

Tested with

Claude Code, ChatGPT

Use cases

• Trace a signal through a netlist to find its drivers and fanout
• Walk the hierarchy to see how a module instance is instantiated
• Jump an AI agent to the netlist object’s source line for review

Pros

• Keeps AI context small by querying the netlist model instead of embedding full RTL
• Provides the three netlist essentials: connectivity tracing, hierarchy walk, and source lookup
• Available on GitHub and built on the najaeda library for inspection

Cons

• Requires an MCP-compatible host and a netlist model, so it is not a standalone CLI parser
• Only 15 stars, so community validation at this stage is limited
• Documented only for SystemVerilog and Verilog netlists, other formats are outside the stated scope
