svd-ai-lab/sim-cli

📦 Summary

• Reframed the public README around uv-first, project-local agent setup.
• Added first-class Windows-safe setup wording without duplicating identical uv commands.
• Updated plugin installation docs to prefer `uv add ...` and `uv run sim ...`.
• Removed global CLI setup guidance from the user-facing path to keep the docs agent-oriented.
• Clarified agent handoff prompts to use installed solver skills without hard-coding skill paths.

📦 Package

• PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/sim-cli-core/0.3.5/
• Distribution: `sim-cli-core==0.3.5`

💥 Breaking change

• After upgrading, `sim-cli-core` ships zero built-in drivers. To use any solver, install its plugin:
• ```sh
• sim plugin install <name> # e.g. ltspice, coolprop
• sim plugin list # see what's available + installed
• ```
• `sim plugin install` resolves short names against the curated plugin index at https://github.com/svd-ai-lab/sim-plugin-index. Private plugins can be installed via `git+https://...` URLs.

📦 Why

• Solver-side libraries (vendor SDKs, file-format parsers) move on their own cadence; bundling them in sim-cli was forcing every release to wait on them.
• Each plugin pins its own solver-side deps, eliminating cross-repo release skew.
• Closed-source / commercial-license drivers can ship privately without bloating the public sim-cli repo.

📦 Migration for existing users

• If you previously relied on a built-in driver, install its plugin once:
• ```sh
• sim plugin install ltspice # (or whichever solver you use)
• ```

📦 Highlights since v0.2.4

• #78 — empty `_BUILTIN_REGISTRY`; pure plugin architecture
• #77 — drop stale `[pybamm]` optional-dependency extra
• #79 — document private-plugin install path in README
