ASE NEB Workflow (Subskill)

SkillMedia

Prepare ASE NEB workflow tasks with backend-agnostic controls. Use when the user needs reaction-path optimization between initial/final states with explicit image construction, spring settings, and convergence controls.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the ASE NEB Workflow (Subskill) skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by jinzhezenggroup/computational-chemistry-agent-skills in atomistic-workflows/ase/ase-workflows/neb/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Scope

This subskill prepares NEB workflow tasks only.

It should generate:

  • NEB workflow script with image setup
  • optimizer/spring/convergence settings
  • output policy for path and barriers

Must provide

  • initial and final structures
  • selected backend adapter
  • number of images
  • optimizer and convergence policy

Usually should be explicit

  • interpolation policy
  • climbing-image setting
  • spring-constant policy

Expected output

  1. NEB workflow script/layout
  2. image/convergence summary
  3. assumptions and unresolved choices
  4. handoff note to dpdisp-submit if execution is requested
