- Physical-design engineers using Cadence Innovus
- Worth noticing
- The flow diagram is explicitly a structural view, not data from an actual design run.
Field notes
The documented workflow separates a lifecycle state machine from a step engine, with file-based hand-offs in an isolated per-project workspace. Skills are described as Markdown playbooks plus Python scripts, and the flow itself as a YAML recipe. The page lists 30 golden Tcl templates, but emphasizes that the shown flow view is structural rather than drawn from a design run; validation is limited to a simulated EDA environment.
