Popularity is tracked separately. Support, ads, sponsorships, and tips never affect these signals.

Why it matters

Useful for hardware verification engineers who want an agent to answer 'what drives this signal' without a commercial debug license, for teams whose existing waveform debug MCP is license-seat-limited, and for anyone doing RTL bring-up who wants static netlist analysis before the first simulation.

Where this stands now

Tencent/wave-mcp ranks #991 of 2770 tracked Radar items by composite score (7.4 against a section median of 4.9). The section currently carries 1659 Bronze, 645 Gold, 466 Silver. RepoRadar has retained observations for this record since 2026-08-29 (35 days in the current window). Signal extremes versus the section: novelty at the 93th percentile.

Who should use it

RTL and hardware verification engineers who want an agent to trace signal drivers and X-state root causes in a waveform teams blocked by seat-limited commercial waveform-debug MCP licenses who need unlimited concurrency chip designers who want to analyze design structure and connectivity from RTL source before running any simulation verification teams running Verilator or Icarus who already dump FST and want that dump queryable from a coding agent

Who should skip it

Pass on Tencent/wave-mcp if its scope or audience does not match what your team is building right now.

About this signal

Tencent/wave-mcp is tracked by RepoRadar as an MCP server in the Radar section. First seen 2026-08-29; the source record was last checked on 2026-08-29. The current verdict is 'watch' with a Silver tier and moderate setup difficulty. Tencent/wave-mcp leads on novelty (9.0) and open-source/build quality (8.4); its lowest signal is setup ease (6.0), so factor that in before investing setup time. This page summarizes the evidence RepoRadar captured from https://github.com/Tencent/wave-mcp.

How this item is evaluated

The Tencent/wave-mcp record combines a 7.4/10 composite score with separate popularity (100.0), risk (none), and setup (moderate) signals. See the scoring methodology for the current weights and evidence definitions.

Risk explanation

Version 0.1.1, first released 2026-08-25. This is an initial public release line with two tags, and the API should be expected to move; Linux x86_64 with glibc 2.28 or newer is the only environment that installs cleanly. macOS, Windows, and arm64 have no prebuilt pylibfst wheel and require a source build with cmake, gcc, and zlib. CentOS 7 / RHEL 7 (glibc 2.17) cannot use the pip path at all and needs either a container or the project's offline bundle with a self-compiled pyslang wheel; The validation table -- a hundred-plus test cases across a production chip project plus OpenTitan and XiangShan IPs, 2.25 million signal-level checks at 100% value-query correctness, 3.1 million tool calls -- is author-run and reported by the team that wrote the tool. The test corpora are public and named, which is more than most projects offer, but no third party has reproduced these numbers; The contributors API returns no entries for this repository, so per-author maintenance depth cannot be confirmed from the public API even though the commit history is real.

29 dated snapshots retained from 2026-08-29 through 2026-10-03; see the snapshot index for explicit coverage gaps. Stars, version, release, pricing, integration, risk, maintenance, verdict, score, and momentum fields remain explicit even when a source has not reported them. Repository momentum is a normalized 0–10 RepoRadar signal; GitHub stars appear only where the popularity monitor retained exact timestamped observations.
