PostEDA-Bench (ReAct) - DRC-Essential: leaderboard

Design-rule repair set of PostEDA-Bench (Liu et al., University of Minnesota, 2026): a ReAct agent edits ASAP7 layouts to clear synthetic sign-off DRC violations, from single atomic rules through violations placed in real routed layouts to cascades of interacting ones, and KLayout re-checks the result. Success rate in percent over 40 tasks, each the share of 5 temperature-0 runs that end DRC-clean within 8 agent actions; higher is better.

Metric: Success rate (%; 40 synthetic sign-off DRC repair tasks, mean of 5 temperature-0 runs per task, ReAct agent). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around February 2027. 8 models tracked.
