Abstract

The complexity of modern FPGA designs has outpaced the scalability of manual security assessments by human experts. Adversarial AI models lack the hardware-specific generalization required for different FPGA architectures. This research proposes an autonomous Reinforcement Learning (RL) framework integrated with the Model Context Protocol (MCP). By equipping a specialized AI agent with MCP capabilities, we can provide it with enhanced contextual awareness and direct tool access. This enables the discovery of optimal paths to security compromises with unique autonomy.
