When design_one_shot_runner.step_rtl_gen WAIVES rtl_gen and ip_catalog_query has emitted matches, this skill pulls the matched open-source IP RTL into the project's canonical phase2/stage1/rtl/ directory and authors only the integration wrapper / chip-top + OpenLane config glue from L1-L27 spec. Replaces full-from-scratch spec-to-rtl authoring for SoC-class designs where pre-validated open-source IPs exist in the catalog. Triggers automatically when phase2 WAIVES with…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# catalog-glue-author — Plugin IP integrator path

## When this skill fires

When `design_one_shot_runner.step_rtl_gen` returns:
```
WAIVED rtl_gen — IC class registered but rtl_gen=null.
                 Recommended action: AI invokes skill `catalog-glue-author`.
IP catalog matches found (evidence — the recommended skill is the one named in
`Recommended action` above; ...):
  - cpu/serv v1.4.0 (ISC) confidence=0.5; matched: ...
  - cpu/picorv32 v1.0.0 (ISC) confidence=0.5; matched: ...
```

RB2-01 (#2063): a catalog match on its own does NOT hand the design to this
skill. The IC class registry's own `fallback_skill` stands unless the INPUT
docs name the matched IP as this design's reuse; when they do not, the WAIVE
names `spec-to-rtl` and the matches are printed as evidence only. The match
list a run acted on is in
`...extras.ip_catalog_declared_reuse` (which matches were declared reuse) beside
`extras.ip_catalog_matches` (everything the query returned).

Plus `phase2_one_shot.json.steps[name=rtl_gen].extras.ip_catalog_matches` carries the structured match list.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vibeic/vibe-ic/catalog-glue-author@sha256:f6696153ec90a329

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.9b74b96, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
