QCoDeS Parameter Sweep Starter
Use this skill to run a tiny deterministic parameter sweep with QCoDeS, persist the measurements to a local dataset database, and summarize the recorded sweep.
What it does
- reads a short setpoint list from a TSV file
- records a synthetic measurement sweep into a QCoDeS SQLite database
- reports run metadata, setpoint range, response statistics, and captured points
When to use it
- you need a verified starter for
instrument-control-and-scheduling - you want a local pattern for QCoDeS
Measurementplus dataset capture before wiring in real instruments - you need a deterministic instrumentation example without hardware dependencies
Example
./slurm/envs/instrumentation/bin/python skills/robotics-lab-automation-and-scientific-instrumentation/qcodes-parameter-sweep-starter/scripts/run_qcodes_parameter_sweep.py \
--setpoints skills/robotics-lab-automation-and-scientific-instrumentation/qcodes-parameter-sweep-starter/examples/toy_setpoints.tsv \
--db-out scratch/qcodes/toy_sweep.db \
--summary-out scratch/qcodes/toy_sweep_summary.json
Verification
- Skill-local tests:
python3 -m unittest discover -s skills/robotics-lab-automation-and-scientific-instrumentation/qcodes-parameter-sweep-starter/tests -p 'test_*.py' - Expected summary:
point_count == 4,response_mean == 1.15,run_id == 1
