Ensure pymatgen and phonopy are installed in your Python environment:
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Pymatgen Phonon
Overview
Pymatgen phonon tools analyze phonon band structures, DOS, Gruneisen parameters, and IR spectra, often from Phonopy outputs.
Required Python Environment
Ensure pymatgen and phonopy are installed in your Python environment:
pip install pymatgen phonopy
# or
conda install -c conda-forge pymatgen phonopyExample usage pattern:
from pymatgen.phonon.bandstructure import PhononBandStructure
# your code hereWhen to Use This Skill
- Analyze phonon band structures, DOS, or spectra
- Work with Gruneisen parameters or phonopy outputs
Core Capabilities
1. Phonon Data Loading
- Load phonon band structure and DOS from YAML
2. Plotting
- Phonon dispersion and DOS plotting utilities
3. Gruneisen and IR
- Gruneisen parameters and IR spectra utilities
Quick Workflow
- Load phonopy outputs or phonon objects.
- Compute or plot band structure/DOS/spectra.
- Export figures or derived data.

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
