Dftbplus

DFTB+ Task Router

Use this skill as the top-level DFTB+ orchestration layer.

Purpose

This skill routes requests to one task-specific subskill path:

• dftbplus/static
• dftbplus/relax
• dftbplus/md
• dftbplus/electronic

Scope

This router skill should:

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

This router skill should not:

• own detailed input 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 / md
• prerequisite ground-state context for electronic

If prerequisites are missing, stop and ask for them.

Routing rules

• If user requests single-point energy/electronic SCF: route to dftbplus/static.
• If user requests geometry optimization: route to dftbplus/relax.
• If user requests molecular dynamics: route to dftbplus/md.
• If user requests band/DOS-style electronic analysis workflow: route to dftbplus/electronic.
• If intent is ambiguous, ask one focused clarification question before routing.

Shared policy for all subskills

• do not invent missing SK parameter files
• expose assumptions and unresolved scientific choices explicitly
• return handoff-ready task layout
• if execution is requested, hand off to dpdisp-submit

Output from router

Provide:

• selected subskill path
• why it was selected
• minimal missing inputs (if any)
• explicit next step (invoke selected subskill)
