READMEOverview ↓

Insert/connect an ILA (Integrated Logic Analyzer), program the board, arm a trigger, and read back captured waveforms on real FPGA hardware. Use when the user says "debug on hardware", "insert ILA", "capture waveform on the board", "the design works in sim but fails on the board", "trigger when X happens on hardware", "probe a signal live", "read the ILA", or wants to observe live silicon behavior via JTAG. Covers the full loop: mark/insert debug cores -> re-implement -> bitstream -> connect hardware server -> program with .ltx probes -> set trigger -> arm -> capture -> read CSV. Requires the SynthPilot MCP server with Vivado open and tclserver.tcl running, plus a physical JTAG-connected board and a running hwserver (hardware server).

Supported by the Atlas install prompt. Skill-specific requirements vary.
