SimPy - Discrete-Event Simulation
Overview
SimPy is a process-based discrete-event simulation framework based on standard Python. Use SimPy to model systems where entities (customers, vehicles, packets, etc.) interact with each other and compete for shared resources (servers, machines, bandwidth, etc.) over time.
Core capabilities:
- Process modeling using Python generator functions
- Shared resource management (servers, containers, stores)
- Event-driven scheduling and synchronization
- Real-time simulations synchronized with wall-clock time
- Comprehensive monitoring and data collection
When to Use This Skill
Use the SimPy skill when:
- Modeling discrete-event systems - Systems where events occur at irregular intervals
- Resource contention - Entities compete for limited resources (servers, machines, staff)

scientific-slides
Build slide decks and presentations for research talks. Use this for making PowerPoint slides, conference presentations, seminar talks, research presentations, thesis defense slides, or any scientific talk. Provides slide structure, design templates, timing guidance, and visual validation. Works with PowerPoint and LaTeX Beamer.
14molecular-dynamics
Run and analyze molecular dynamics simulations with OpenMM and MDAnalysis. Set up protein/small molecule systems, define force fields, run energy minimization and production MD, analyze trajectories (RMSD, RMSF, contact maps, free energy surfaces). For structural biology, drug binding, and biophysics.
13paper-lookup
Search 10 academic paper databases via REST APIs for research papers, preprints, and scholarly articles. Covers PubMed, PMC (full text), bioRxiv, medRxiv, arXiv, OpenAlex, Crossref, Semantic Scholar, CORE, Unpaywall. Use when searching for papers, citations, DOI/PMID lookups, abstracts, full text, open access, preprints, citation graphs, author search, or any scholarly literature query. Triggers on mentions of any supported database or requests like "find papers on X" or "look up this DOI".
13hypothesis-generation
Structured hypothesis formulation from observations. Use when you have experimental observations or data and need to formulate testable hypotheses with predictions, propose mechanisms, and design experiments to test them. Follows scientific method framework. For open-ended ideation use scientific-brainstorming; for automated LLM-driven hypothesis testing on datasets use hypogenic.
12paper-2-web
This skill should be used when converting academic papers into promotional and presentation formats including interactive websites (Paper2Web), presentation videos (Paper2Video), and conference posters (Paper2Poster). Use this skill for tasks involving paper dissemination, conference preparation, creating explorable academic homepages, generating video abstracts, or producing print-ready posters from LaTeX or PDF sources.
12research-grants
Write competitive research proposals for NSF, NIH, DOE, DARPA, and Taiwan NSTC. Agency-specific formatting, review criteria, budget preparation, broader impacts, significance statements, innovation narratives, and compliance with submission requirements.
