 "what": "wave-mcp is an open-source, license-free MCP server and CLI that lets AI agents and engineers debug RTL simulation waveforms (FST, with VCD and FSDB converted automatically) against a SystemVerilog netlist.",
 "why": "249 stars",
 "language": "Python",
 "requirements": [
  "Linux x86_64, where the Python dependencies ship as prebuilt wheels (other platforms need pylibfst built from source)",
  "Python 3.10 to 3.13",
  "A simulation waveform (.fst or .vcd) and the same filelist used to run the simulation",
  "An MCP-capable agent such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or Gemini CLI, or a terminal for the CLI"
 ],
