Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# IP Core Management Skill ## Overview Expert skill for vendor IP core configuration and integration, enabling efficient use of pre-built intellectual property in FPGA designs. ## Capabilities - Configure Xilinx/AMD IP cores - Configure Intel/Altera IP cores - Generate IP output products - Connect IP interfaces correctly - Handle IP versioning and updates - Configure IP parameters via TCL - Integrate third-party IP cores - Document IP configurations ## Target Processes - ip-core-integration.js - clock-network-design.js - memory-interface-design.js - axi-interface-design.js ## Usage Guidelines ### Xilinx IP Configuration - Use IP Integrator for block design - Configure via GUI or TCL scripts - Generate output products before synthesis - Lock IP versions for reproducibility - Use IP upgrade advisor for version changes ### Intel IP Configuration - Use Platform Designer (Qsys) - Configure system interconnect - Generate HDL and synthesis files - Handle parameterization correctly - Use IP upgrade reports ### Common IP Categories - **Clock Management**: MMCM, PLL configurations - **Memory Controllers**: DDR, HBM, QDR - **Interconnect**: AXI Interconnect, SmartConnect - **Processing**: Mic

What does the ip-core-management skill do?
Vendor IP core configuration and integration expertise for FPGA designs
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add a5c-ai/babysitter --skill ip-core-management --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From a5c-ai/babysitter, a repository with 1,642 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
