AI SKILL pymeasure
Use when working with PyMeasure - the Python library for scientific measurement, instrument control, and experiment automation (built on PyVISA): the Instrument/Channel base classes and dynamic properties, instrument drivers by manufacturer (Keithley, Agilent/Keysight, HP, Lake Shore, SRS, Tektronix, Rohde & Schwarz, ...), Adapters (VISA/serial/Prologix/TCP), the Procedure/Experiment/Worker framework, Results, plotting/display, and the measurement workflow. from pymeasure.instruments import ... Not for the Python stdlib, raw PyVISA, or other instrument-control libraries.From its SKILL.md

PyMeasure Reference
Original-prose reference for PyMeasure, split into one focused file per subject across 109 reference files. Identifiers (API/type/function names, flags, paths, enums, numbers) are preserved verbatim.
When to use this
Use this skill when the task involves the PyMeasure library - instrument drivers by manufacturer, the Instrument/Channel base classes and dynamic instrument properties, Adapters (VISA/serial/Prologix/TCP), the Procedure/Experiment/Worker automation framework, Results storage, plotting/display, and the end-to-end measurement workflow.
Workflow
- Open
references/INDEX.md(orreferences/topics.json) and pick the one file that matches. - Read only that file; open another only if the task spans subjects. Grep across files when needed:
rg -n "PATTERN" references/*.md. - Treat every identifier as an exact reference fact - never invent or paraphrase.
Gotchas
Recurring failure modes and what to do instead live in the sibling GOTCHA.md.
References
All depth lives in references/ - start at references/INDEX.md, metadata in references/topics.json. One subject per file.
Source
Adapted from the upstream PyMeasure documentation into original prose for local reference. Identifiers remain verbatim. Upstream: https://pymeasure.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
