mcp-sandpiperaas

A MCP server that wraps Redwood EDA’s SandPiper-SaaS compile function to convert TL‑Verilog (TLV) files into SystemVerilog/Verilog. Exposes every SandPiper flag as its own MCP tool parameter for introspection and easy automation. In other words, tell in natural language(English) what you want the compiler to do. Refer for prompt examples.

This project uses UV to manage its virtual environment and dependencies.

Install UV

If you don’t already have the UV CLI installed, you can install it using just pip (no pipx required):

pip install --user uv

Or, if you prefer an isolated install via pipx:

pipx install uv

Verify that it’s on your PATH:

uv --version

Initialize & install dependencies & install dependencies

Clone this repo

git clone https://github.com/shariethernet/mcp-sandpipersaas.git

From the project root, run:

uv install

This will create (or reuse) a .venv/ directory and install all required packages.

Running the server

With uv

The easiest way to start the MCP server is via the uv command (part of the UV toolkit):

uv --directory <path_to_this_repo>/mcp-sandpiperasaas run mcp-sandpiperasaas.py

This will launch the MCP server over stdio, ready to accept tools/list and tools/invoke requests.

With uvx

If you prefer the lightweight uvx bundle:

uvx run mcp-sandpiperasaas.py

It will detect and run the MCP server in the current directory.

Claude Desktop/Cline configuration

You can configure your MCP-server with the following json for Cline or Claude Desktop or any MCP Client that atleast supports mcp tool calling: (Note for paths in windows use \\ instead of /)
