scitex

name	scitex
description	[WHAT] Umbrella package that lazy-re-exports every standalone SciTeX sister package (io, plt, stats, scholar, writer, cloud, container, ...) under one `import scitex` namespace. [WHEN] Use when the user wants the all-in-one entry point, or asks for `import scitex`, `scitex.io`, `scitex.plt`, `@scitex.session`, or any `scitex.<sub>` access; defer to the relevant sister-package skill for sub-module specifics. [HOW] `pip install scitex` then `import scitex`; sub-modules load lazily on first attribute access (see `src/scitex/__init__.py`).

scitex — umbrella package

scitex is the user-facing aggregator for the SciTeX ecosystem. Each sister package (scitex_io, scitex_plt, scitex_stats, ...) ships independently on PyPI; the umbrella re-exports them lazily so a single import scitex exposes the whole stack with sub-second startup.

Mechanics

• External standalones are registered via _EXTERNAL_REEXPORTS and wrapped with importlib.util.LazyLoader so scitex.io, scitex.plt, etc. resolve to the top-level scitex_<short> package only on first attribute access.
• Native sub-modules (scitex.gen, scitex.config, ...) live under src/scitex/<name>/ and are wrapped by _LazyModule.
• scitex.session is a _CallableModuleWrapper so @scitex.session works as both a decorator and a module.

See src/scitex/__init__.py for the full mapping.

Sub-skills index

The umbrella does not duplicate sister-package documentation. For package-specific guidance, load the corresponding skill:

Topic	Skill
Universal I/O	scitex-io
Plotting	scitex-plt (thin shim over figrecipe)
Statistics	scitex-stats
Scholar / literature	scitex-scholar
Manuscript writer	scitex-writer
Cloud platform	scitex-cloud
Containers	scitex-container
Notebook reproducibility	scitex-notebook
Notifications	scitex-notification
Audio / TTS	scitex-audio
Datasets	scitex-dataset
Linter	scitex-linter
Dev tooling	scitex-dev
Ecosystem standards	scitex / general

Quick reference

import scitex

@scitex.session
def main(CONFIG=scitex.INJECTED, plt=scitex.INJECTED, logger=scitex.INJECTED):
    fig, ax = scitex.plt.subplots()
    ax.plot_line(x, y)
    scitex.io.save(fig, "plot.png")    # auto-exports plot.csv
    return 0

Mandatory leaves

• 01_installation.md — pip install scitex + extras
• 02_quick-start.md — minimal @scitex.session script
• 03_python-api.md — top-level scitex.* surface
• 04_cli-reference.md — scitex console entry

MCP

Sister-package MCP tools are mounted under namespaced prefixes (io_*, plt_*, stats_*, scholar_*, ...) on the umbrella server exposed by scitex.mcp_server.
