What it does

Dft Vasp is an agent skill from jinzhezenggroup/computational-chemistry-agent-skills. Route VASP DFT requests to task-specific subskills based on user intent. Use when the user asks for VASP workflows and you must decide between static SCF, relaxation, DOS, or band-structure task preparation. This orchestration skill does not own detailed input generation logic; it dispatches to the correct VASP subskill and enforces consistent handoff to submission skills.

Its SKILL.md is about 600 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/commands-and-workflow.md`). Compatibility notes: Requires a user-provided structure and valid VASP pseudopotential resources/license in the target environment.

The repository describes itself as: Agent skills to run computational-chemistry tasks, used in OpenClaw. The licence is LGPL-3.0-or-later.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks for VASP workflows and you must decide between static SCF
  • Band-structure task preparation

Example prompts

  • “/dft-vasp”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires a user-provided structure and valid VASP pseudopotential resources/license in the target environment.

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. If user requests single-point energy/electronic SCF: route to dft-vasp/static.
  2. If user requests geometry optimization: route to dft-vasp/relax.
  3. If user requests density of states workflow: route to dft-vasp/dos.
  4. If user requests band-structure workflow: route to dft-vasp/band.
  5. If intent is ambiguous, ask one focused clarification question before routing.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5c19e75. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    Requires a user-provided structure and valid VASP pseudopotential resources/license in the target environment.

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Dft Vasp loads about 602 tokens when it runs, and up to ~824 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 96 tokens; SKILL.md has 229 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~96
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~602
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~824

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

VASP Task Router

Use this skill as the top-level VASP orchestration layer.

Purpose

This skill routes the request to one task-specific VASP subskill path:

  • dft-vasp/static
  • dft-vasp/relax
  • dft-vasp/dos
  • dft-vasp/band

Scope

This router skill should:

  • require a user-provided structure or prerequisite run artifacts
  • classify user intent into one VASP task type
  • collect only minimal shared context before dispatch
  • delegate detailed parameter handling to the selected subskill
  • enforce consistent output/handoff policy across subskills

This router skill should not:

  • own full INCAR/KPOINTS templates for all tasks
  • execute or submit calculations
  • bypass task-specific guardrails

Hard requirement

The user must provide enough starting context:

  • structure input for static / relax
  • prerequisite SCF artifacts for dos / band when required

If prerequisites are missing, stop and ask for them.

Routing rules

  1. If user requests single-point energy/electronic SCF: route to dft-vasp/static.
  2. If user requests geometry optimization: route to dft-vasp/relax.
  3. If user requests density of states workflow: route to dft-vasp/dos.
  4. If user requests band-structure workflow: route to dft-vasp/band.
  5. If intent is ambiguous, ask one focused clarification question before routing.

Shared policy for all subskills

  • do not invent pseudopotentials
  • expose assumptions explicitly
  • report unresolved scientific choices
  • return handoff-ready task directory
  • if execution is requested, hand off to dpdisp-submit

Output from router

Provide:

  1. selected subskill name
  2. why it was selected
  3. minimal required inputs still missing (if any)
  4. explicit next step (invoke selected subskill)
