HORIZON introduces an agent framework that autonomously evolves hardware design artifacts as repository-level code, extending self-evolution techniques from EDA software to hardware design. Evaluated on ChipBench, RTLLM, Verilog-Eval, and ni.

Full story

We present HORIZON, a self-evolving agent framework that treats hardware design as repository-level code evolution. A Markdown harness is compiled into a project pack containing domain knowledge, an executable evaluator, an acceptance predicate, and a git/runtime policy; a hands-free agent loop then evolves an isolated git worktree, using repository operations for state management, tracing, and replay. This extends prior works of repository-scale self-evolution from EDA software systems, to hardware-design artifacts themselves. We evaluate our approach on ChipBench, RTLLM, Verilog-Eval, and ni
