SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Running traffic simulations requires configuring SUMO networks, managing run artifacts, and comparing signal plans consistently, which is error-prone when done manually across files and toolchains. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Simulation Project Management: Read studio.json controls, run simulations via the studio toolchain, and inspect results in out/runs/<id>/ with out/latest.json tracking the current result. - Signal Plan Comparison: Record a baseline, vary east-west green time while holding demand, duration, and seed fixed, then compare mean delay, unfinished trips, and maximum stopped queue. - Use Case: A traffic engineer wants to test whether extending east-west green time reduces congestion at a four-way intersection; the Skill generates the SUMO network with netconvert, runs the simulation, and reports measured delay and queue metrics from trips.csv and traffic.xml. ## Quick Start Run a baseline traffic simulation of the starter four-way intersection and tell me the mean delay and unfinished vehicle count.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run a SUMO traffic simulation in the SimSkill workspace?

Run the studio toolchain's run.sh with the simulate command after reviewing controls in studio.json. Successful artifacts land in out/runs/<id>/, and out/latest.json names the current result; failed runs preserve the last success and record the error in the verdict.

How to compare traffic signal plans with SUMO simulation?

Record a baseline run, then change east-west green time while holding demand, duration, and seed fixed. Compare mean delay for completed trips together with the unfinished count and largest stopped queue, and never drop unfinished vehicles when describing congestion.

Does the SimSkill starter represent a real calibrated city?

No, the starter is an original four-way intersection generated with SUMO netconvert, not a calibrated city model. Comparisons are simulation experiments, not calibrated forecasts for real cities.

What outputs does a SUMO simulation run produce?

Each run produces trips.csv, the generated network, raw traffic.xml, and floating-car output used for playback. The viewer supports history and artifact downloads, and you should identify which run contains each result.

Does SUMO simulation work on Intel Macs?

Yes, Intel Macs build pinned SUMO 1.27.1 headlessly with package-local Xerces. The local workflow generates the network with netconvert and simulates actual traffic with SUMO.
