AgileAssert identifies top critical signals via hybrid scoring on RTL graphs and uses structure-aware slicing to let LLMs generate targeted assertions, cutting assertion count by 66.68% and token use by 64% while matching or exceeding prior coverage and error detection.
CoverAssert iteratively improves LLM-generated assertions via syntax-semantic clustering and coverage feedback, yielding 9.57% branch, 9.64% statement, and 15.69% toggle coverage gains on four open-source designs when combined with prior tools.
