debug-rtl-sim

Debug an RTL or gate-level simulation that hangs, times out, produces no output, or computes the wrong answer, without dumping logs or waveforms into context. Covers the cheapest-first ladder (which gate failed, how the run stopped, a bounded fetch trace, bounded disassembly, reduce to the smallest failing case, and only then a windowed waveform), the harness properties that make each rung possible (distinct exit codes, a cycle budget, a probe port, the program as a runtime plusarg), and why a plausible-looking number from a broken configuration is the failure mode to fear most. Use when a simulation "just hangs", when a core produces no output, when a workload passes on one configuration and not another, or before reaching for a waveform.

study-pr

Run a measurement study on the flow and publish it as a closed, reference-only bazel-orfs pull request. Covers the two kinds of patch a study carries into OpenROAD, ORFS or yosys (instrumentation that stays on the study branch, candidate fixes carried in patches/ one concern each), the edit/measure loop, the noise discipline that makes a runtime or QoR number trustworthy (byte-identical inputs, fixed and witnessed knobs, repeats with 2σ and a stated resolution, an idle machine asserted not hoped), the harness shape (manual flow targets, unit-tested parsers, a report that discovers results and says "not yet measured"), and the PR shape (study/<slug> branch, the finding as the title, graphs and tables in the body with images committed to the branch, raw data as a CSV comment, a closing comment). Use when asked to "study", "measure", "find out where the time goes", "A/B a knob or patch", or to document design decisions that go into an upstream PR.

repair-timing-grt

Investigate OpenROAD global-route repair_timing correctly — the grt "grind"/timeout, hold- and setup-buffer insertion. Covers why a skip-repair (fast) grt measures nothing about repair, why repair_timing must run inside global_route.tcl on the pre-GR ODB, how to split the grind into setup vs hold before blaming either, why the win is measured as clk_period-WNS in picoseconds rather than as a percentage of WNS, and why a design that closes measures nothing about a repair knob. Use when a grt stage times out or runs for hours, when a change is meant to affect repair_timing, or when reasoning about hold vs setup buffer insertion at global route.
