Build and Quality Scripts

This directory contains the Python implementation of setup, dependency locking, build manifests, flow execution, simulation checks, regression orchestration, quality checks, metrics, packaging, and cleanup.

Scripts are part of the build contract. Prefer existing helpers over ad-hoc shell behavior, preserve structured JSON results, and keep setup/download behavior controlled by config/dependencies.lock.json.

development_environment.py is the shared Docker, Nix, and manual bootstrap entry point. It installs only the checksum-verified open-source tool bundles and hash-pinned Python dependencies; project-local PDK and source setup remains under the existing Make targets.

publish_fatfs_artifact.sh is the manual release helper for the lock-pinned FatFs R0.16 archive. It verifies the archive, GitHub authentication, release absence, and the published asset checksum before reporting the checksum-pinned URL.

parse_performance_log.py converts the APP=benchmark UART PERF records into meta/performance.json. The parser requires the terminal PERF_BENCHMARK_PASS marker. parse_coremark_log.py converts the fixed SRAM CoreMark quick report into meta/coremark.json; it requires one valid COREMARK_RESULT record and COREMARK_PASS. Both reports complement, rather than replace, the common SIM_TEST_PASS simulation verdict.

run_debug_session.py is the local Hazard3 debug acceptance driver. It starts the Verilator remote-bitbang endpoint, the lock-pinned OpenOCD binary, and RISC-V GDB, then records their logs and a structured result. Invoke it through make CONFIG=configs/ci/ihp130-debug.mk SIMU=VERILATOR debug-sim; see ../docs/hazard3-debug.md for its scope and limitations.

check_rtl_style.py applies the ownership-aware RTL style rules from ../rtl/rtl_style_manifest.json. The CI target checks changed self-owned RTL for positional module connections and legacy constructs. Existing findings are migrated in module-sized batches and must not be expanded by a new change.

migrate_rtl_connections.py is the conservative migration helper for legacy positional instances. It discovers ANSI-style module declarations in the production RTL and locked technology/IP trees, rewrites only exact positional parameter and port lists to named connections, and reports ambiguous instances without modifying them. Run make rtl-migrate-connections, then make rtl-format rtl-style-check; review the generated diff before committing.

migrate_rtl_names.py shortens only local identifiers beginning with s_ or r_ (plus local automatic variables such as read_request). Public module ports and interface fields are intentionally unchanged. Run make rtl-migrate-names, then format and lint the resulting diff.

Update or add tests in ../tests for script behavior. Run ruff check . and python3 -m pytest -q; build-flow changes also require the relevant dry-run or regression profile from AGENTS.md.
