+# KLayout as an Optional Dependency
+
+KLayout is only required for GDS/OAS stream generation, DRC, and LVS
+verification. All other ORFS functionality — synthesis, floorplanning,
+placement, CTS, routing, timing reports, and abstract generation — works
+without KLayout installed.
+
+## Makefile Targets
+
+| Target | Requires KLayout | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `make finish` | Yes | Complete flow including GDS generation |
+| `make gds` | Yes | Generate GDS/OAS from finished design |
+| `make drc` | Yes | Run DRC checks (requires GDS) |
+| `make lvs` | Yes | Run LVS checks (requires GDS) |
+| `make gallery` | Yes | Generate layout screenshots |
+| `make klayout_<file>` | Yes | Open result in KLayout viewer |
+| `make generate_abstract` | No | Generate LEF/LIB abstracts |
+
+A `check-klayout` guard produces a clear error message when KLayout is
+missing and a KLayout-dependent target is invoked:
+
+```
+Error: KLayout not found. Install KLayout or set KLAYOUT_CMD.
+Hint: KLayout is needed for GDS/DRC/LVS targets.
+```
+
+## bazel-orfs Integration
+
+bazel-orfs uses the `do-` prefixed targets which bypass Make's dependency
+management. `do-finish` / `do-final` only run the finish stage recipe
+itself, while `make finish` also pulls in the GDS target as a Make
+dependency. `do-gds` runs GDS generation separately (requires KLayout).
+
+An `orfs_gds()` Bazel rule can call `do-gds` independently from
+`orfs_flow()`, making KLayout an optional toolchain dependency configured
+in `MODULE.bazel`.
+
+## KLayout Tech File Generation
+
+The `do-klayout` and `do-klayout_wrap` targets generate `.lyt` technology
+files by substituting LEF and map file paths into platform templates.
+This is implemented in `util/generate_klayout_tech.py` using stdlib XML
+processing — no KLayout dependency required.
+
+## Testing Without KLayout
+
+Unit tests for all KLayout-related Python scripts use `unittest.mock` to
+mock the `pya` API:
+
+```
+cd flow/test
+python -m unittest test_generate_klayout_tech test_def2stream test_convertDrc
+```
+
+These tests cover:
+- `.lyt` tech file generation (`test_generate_klayout_tech.py`)
+- DEF-to-GDS merging logic (`test_def2stream.py`)
+- DRC report conversion (`test_convertDrc.py`)
