RICHLAND, Wash.- The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today released to the public the first set of technical resources developed by a collaborative team with members from across the DOE national laboratory system, including the ModCon and the American Science Cloud efforts supporting the Genesis Mission.
The newly released "Genesis Agent Skills" are a collection of coding assistants designed to help researchers and developers across the Genesis Mission work more effectively with coding tools. The release, co-led by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, represents the first foundational building block in the Genesis Mission shared research infrastructure.
The Genesis Agent Skills package is co-led by PNNL's Nathan Hodas and Berkeley Lab's Stefan Wild. Their team, which includes PNNL's Natalie Isenberg, Reilly Raab, Emily Saldanha, Malachi Schram, Aaron Tuor, and Rohith Varikoti, provides reusable methods, frameworks and tools that underpin accelerated scientific discovery.
"This release is an early example of the Genesis Mission turning collaborative research and development into practical capability that people can use," said Court Corley, interim technical director of the Genesis Mission and a chief scientist at PNNL. "The goal is to put the collective expertise of the laboratory system into the hands of researchers, in a form that is accessible, reusable, and ready to support new work."
The package is freely available to the developer community and the public. Scientists and engineers across the country can get started today using the Genesis Agent Skills package at GitHub. DOE invites users to explore the catalog, contribute improvements and adapt the workflows to advance scientific discovery.
