Alterlab Remote Compute

alterlab-ieu/alterlab-remote-compute

Dispatch long-running GPU/CPU jobs to remote compute with a provider-agnostic submit → poll → harvest pattern across SLURM/HPC (sbatch, squeue, sacct) and managed APIs (Modal, RunPod, GCP Batch / Vertex AI). Use when submitting a batch job to a cluster, polling job status, retrieving result artifacts from a scheduler or cloud GPU provider, or writing a portable job-submission wrapper; the foundation-model skills (alterlab-alphafold, alterlab-boltz, alterlab-rfdiffusion, and siblings) dispatch their GPU work through this pattern. For Modal-specific serverless container deployment and autoscaling prefer alterlab-modal instead. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
