pylabrobot

Lab automation platform for protocol execution, asset management, and hardware control, built on PyLabRobot

Simulation-first lab robotics: PyLabRobot arm control, eye-in-hand vision, dexterous manipulation, and auditable workcell tasks.

Capture, decode, and guarded-replay tooling for no-API lab instruments; incomplete maps remain blocked from actuation.

Find the cheapest sequencing library prep that still gives a callable answer. An agent maximizes unique reads per dollar, warm-started by a bench scientist and gated on in-process CV.

Evidence and permission for autonomous labs: expert QC gates, workcell orchestration, provenance, recovery, and honest hardware boundaries.

Generic, simulator-only scRNA-seq and whole-genome sequencing workflows, from planning through configurable analysis handoffs.

Closed-loop ML for biology: ESM-2 protein design by simulated annealing, Bayesian assay optimization with a split-conformal accept/reject/escalate gate, and an agentic design-build-test-learn engine driving a liquid handler. Sim-first, CPU-only.

Auditable MCP tools for PyLabRobot: run and sample context, typed provenance, simulation by default, and explicit hardware permission.

A world model runs the bench. Track A entry for the AI for Science World Models Hack @ Zeon Systems: sim-first, composing the @di-omics autonomous-lab stack + a bridge to drive Zeon's arm via PyLabRobot.

Synthetic, ground-truth demos for scRNA-seq, methylation sequencing, PCR enrichment, and other omics QC; no wet-lab claims.

Three Claude Code skills for authoring PyLabRobot devices under the v1b1 capability-architecture: protocol extraction, scaffolding, and review.
