Overview

What is Openroad Mcp?

Openroad Mcp is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides tools for interacting with OpenROAD and ORFS (OpenROAD Flow Scripts). It enables AI assistants to execute OpenROAD commands in persistent sessions, manage multiple sessions, access command history and performance metrics, and visualize ORFS reports.

How to use Openroad Mcp?

Install via uvx using the standard MCP client JSON configuration: set the command to uvx with arguments --from git+https://github.com/luarss/openroad-mcp openroad-mcp. For Claude Code, add the server via the CLI: claude mcp add --transport stdio openroad-mcp -- uvx --from git+https://github.com/luarss/openroad-mcp openroad-mcp. Once configured, restart the client and tools such as interactive_openroad and create_interactive_session become available.

Key features of Openroad Mcp

  • Interactive OpenROAD sessions with PTY support
  • Session creation, listing, inspection, and termination
  • Command history access for any session
  • Performance metrics across all sessions
  • Report image listing and reading from ORFS runs

Use cases of Openroad Mcp

  • Running and debugging OpenROAD commands interactively via an AI assistant
  • Managing multiple concurrent OpenROAD sessions in EDA workflows
  • Monitoring performance metrics across OpenROAD design runs
  • Inspecting and reading ORFS report images without leaving the MCP client
  • Automating RTL-to-GDS flow tasks through MCP tools

Frequently asked questions

1

What are the system requirements?

OpenROAD must be installed and available in your PATH. Python 3.13+ and the `uv` package manager are also required. ORFS (OpenROAD Flow Scripts) is optional but recommended for complete flows.

2

Which MCP clients are supported?

Claude Code and Gemini CLI are fully supported via STDIO transport. Other MCP clients using STDIO should work with standard configuration.

3

How do I troubleshoot if the server fails to start?

Ensure `uv` is installed and in PATH, verify the path to `openroad-mcp` is correct, run `make sync` to install all dependencies, and check your MCP client logs for specific error messages.

4

Is Docker deployment available?

Docker deployment via GitHub Container Registry is a work in progress and not yet available.

5

Can I use Openroad Mcp without ORFS?

Yes, OpenROAD alone is sufficient for running commands interactively. ORFS is optional but recommended for complete RTL-to-GDS flow support.
