USE WHEN deciding which Selemene surface to invoke or when routing between birth/compatibility/transit reports and solo/dyadic readings.
Route Selemene Engine tasks to the right surface: deterministic reports (birth/compatibility/transit) via selemene-core and the @selemene/bridge CLI, or narrative witness readings via selemene-report. USE WHEN the user wants anything under the Selemene/Noesis umbrella but has not named the exact surface.

Working with SymPy: Best Practices
1. Always Define Symbols First from sympy import symbols
x, y, z = symbols('x y z' )
2. Use Assumptions for Better Simplification x = symbols('x' , positive=True , real=True )
sqrt(x**2 )
Common assumptions: real, positive, negative, integer, rational, complex, even, odd
3. Use Exact Arithmetic from sympy import Rational, S
expr = Rational(1 , 2 ) * x
expr = S(1 )/2 * x
expr = 0.5 * x
4. Numerical Evaluation When Needed from sympy import pi, sqrt
result = sqrt(8 ) + pi
result.evalf()
result.evalf(50 )
5. Convert to NumPy for Performance
for x_val in range (1000 ):
result = expr.subs(x, x_val).evalf()
f = lambdify(x, expr, 'numpy' )
results = f(np.arange(1000 ))
6. Use Appropriate Solvers
solveset: Algebraic equations (primary)linsolve: Linear systemsnonlinsolve: Nonlinear systemsdsolve: Differential equationssolve: General purpose (legacy, but flexible)

for sol in solutions:
result = simplify(equation.subs(x, sol))
assert result == 0

result = integral_expr.doit()
print (f"LaTeX: {latex(integral_expr)} = {latex(result)} " )
print (f"Pretty: {pretty(integral_expr)} = {pretty(result)} " )
print (f"Numerical: {result.evalf()} " )

Troubleshooting Common Issues
"NameError: name 'x' is not defined"
Solution: Always define symbols using symbols() before use
Unexpected numerical results
Issue: Using floating-point numbers like 0.5 instead of Rational(1, 2)
Solution: Use Rational() or S() for exact arithmetic
Slow performance in loops
Issue: Using subs() and evalf() repeatedly
Solution: Use lambdify() to create a fast numerical function
"Can't solve this equation"
Try different solvers: solve, solveset, nsolve (numerical)
Check if the equation is solvable algebraically
Use numerical methods if no closed-form solution exists
Simplification not working as expected
Try different simplification functions: simplify, factor, expand, trigsimp
Add assumptions to symbols (e.g., positive=True)
Use simplify(expr, force=True) for aggressive simplification
