Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
--- name: mechanical-properties description: Mechanical Properties (5 sub-skills: angular-mechanics, elastic-constants, energy-strain-method, equation-of-state, stress-strain-method) --- # Mechanical Properties ## Overview This skill group covers calculations of mechanical properties of crystalline materials. Two main approaches are available: 1. **MACE (via ASE)** -- Fast ML-potential-based calculations. Good for screening, rapid estimation of elastic constants and equations of state. Seconds to minutes per structure. 2. **Quantum ESPRESSO (QE)** -- Full DFT. Required for publication-quality results and when MACE accuracy is insufficient for the system of interest. Both approaches follow the same physical workflow (inspired by atomate2's elastic and EOS flows): relax the structure, apply systematic deformations, compute response properties, and fit constitutive models. ## Sub-Skills | Sub-Skill | Directory | Description | |---|---|---| | Elastic Constants | `elastic-constants/` | Full elastic tensor via stress-strain method, Voigt-Reuss-Hill moduli, stability criteria | | Equation of State | `equation-of-state/` | E-V curves, Birch-Murnaghan / Vinet / Murnaghan EOS fits, bulk modu

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill mechanical-properties --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
