| name | vasp-analysis |
| description | Use when the task is to analyze completed or partially completed VASP results, including energy extraction, convergence interpretation, structure or force summaries, comparing multiple VASP runs, and writing compact reports from OUTCAR, OSZICAR, INCAR, or POSCAR. |
VASP Analysis
Use this skill for post-run VASP result analysis rather than workflow setup.
When to use
- analyze a completed or incomplete VASP run
- compare energies across multiple VASP directories
- summarize convergence, forces, or status from
OUTCAR and OSZICAR
- write a compact status or comparison report from existing results
Use the bundled helpers

Guardrails
- Do not claim a scientific conclusion from an incomplete or unconverged run.
- Distinguish raw extraction from interpretation.
- If directories are not numerically comparable, say so plainly.
