fpga-hps-bridge SKILL.md skillA
fpga-hps-bridge from vibeic/vibe-ic is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add vibeic/vibe-ic/fpga-hps-bridge@git:20260613.86cacb4Pins git:20260613.86cacb4 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Generate HPS (Hard Processor System) integration for DE10-Nano FPGA verification. Replaces UART with direct memory-mapped register access from the ARM Cortex-A9 — approximately 100x faster, no external cables needed. Triggers when: 'HPS bridge', 'memory mapped FPGA', 'no UART', 'faster BIST', 'on-board test', 'HPS test', 'ARM to FPGA', or when UART is too slow for regression/stress testing.
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
# FPGA HPS Bridge Generator
Generate a complete HPS-to-FPGA bridge integration for Cyclone V SoC FPGA verification, enabling the ARM Cortex-A9 to control BIST engines via direct memory-mapped I/O instead of UART.
## Generate (do NOT hand-paste the bridge or the register offsets)
The bridge RTL + the 16-entry register map are a FIXED, deterministic lookup —
paraphrasing a byte offset is a silent bug (the HPS `/dev/mem` read lands on the
wrong register and reports garbage with no error). Run the generator instead of
re-typing the files:
```bash
python3 ../../programs/fpga_hps_bridge_gen.py \
--ic <ic_name> --out <project_dir> \
[--bist <bist_module>] [--dut <dut_module>] \
[--chip-id 0xNN] [--version 0xNN] \
[--total-tests N] [--base 0xFF200000]
```
It emits all four artefacts verbatim and identically every run:
`common_rtl/hps_bridge.sv`, `<ic>_hps_top.sv`, `hps_test.py`, and
`hps_register_map.md` (the canonical 16-register table, offsets 0x00..0x3C).
`--ic`, the BIST/DUT module names, and the CHIP_ID/VERSION constants are
parameters — the generator is chip-AGNOSTIC. Invalid input (empty IC stem,

How to install
mdr add vibeic/vibe-ic/fpga-hps-bridge@sha256:7f5713160f8c6d80The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260613.86cacb4, 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.
