Siemens has introduced the Questa One Agentic Toolkit, adding domain-scoped agentic AI workflows to its verification portfolio to improve RTL design and verification efficiency. The toolkit deploys autonomous agents for RTL code generation, linting, clock-domain crossing analysis, verification planning, and debug. These agents operate within defined governance boundaries and integrate directly with existing verification tools, maintaining compatibility with established workflows and third-party AI coding environments. The system supports adaptive cross-run strategies, automated configuration tuning, and correlation of waveforms, coverage, and logs to accelerate root-cause analysis. The result is reduced manual effort, improved verification closure time, and more consistent RTL sign-off in complex IC designs.
