What problem does it solve?
Constructing SimBiology models by hand requires deep knowledge of the API, naming conventions, and diagram layout rules, and mistakes like deprecated properties or invalid qualified names cause failures at simulation time. This Skill gives an AI agent the exact API patterns, helper functions, and layout procedures to build correct models on the first attempt.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Programmatic Model Construction: Create compartments, species, reactions, parameters, rules, events, doses, observables, and variants using modern SimBiology API conventions with qualified naming and unit consistency.
- Standard PK Model Generation: Use PKModelDesign patterns for one- and two-compartment pharmacokinetic models with correct parameterization and naming.
- Diagram Layout and Styling: Position blocks, validate layouts with checkDiagramLayout, and apply color palettes when the user requests a visual diagram in the Model Builder app.
- Use Case: Ask your agent to build a two-compartment PK model with bolus dosing and linear clearance, then request a laid-out diagram — the agent constructs the model, opens the Model Builder safely, positions all blocks, and validates the layout has zero violations.
Quick Start
Ask your AI agent to build a SimBiology model, for example: create a one-compartment PK model with first-order absorption and linear clearance, then show me the diagram.
