arXiv:2608.01791v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The rapid development of photonic integrated circuits (PICs) is shifting the design flow from traditional graphical user interface (GUI)-based methods to script-based methods for higher flexibility, portability, and maintainability. However, script-based design introduces new challenges, requiring designers to possess additional proficiency in tool application programming interfaces (APIs) and programming. It also demands greater effort and time because it is inherently less intuitive and more complex than GUI-based methods. As PICs grow in scale and complexity, the productivity gap between design needs and manual scripting capabilities continues to widen. To address this gap, we introduce PICopilot, the first large language model (LLM)-based agentic framework that assists in PIC design via automated design script generation from natural language instructions. PICopilot leverages a multi-agent architecture with a feedback mechanism and a specifically designed retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipeline, achieving a high success rate and reliability. Experimental results on a benchmark of diverse PIC scripting tasks demonstrate that PICopilot successfully completes all 48 tasks and outperforms other LLM-based approaches without incurring substantial extra latency or cost, even solving 21 more tasks than the advanced GPT-5 model with a general RAG pipeline.
