OpenQuantum: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/chromobius-decoding/SKILL.md

chromobius-decoding is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from xi-zhao/OpenQuantum. It costs 58 tokens per session (1,095 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for decoding certain quantum error-correction data with Chromobius, a library for analysing Stim detector-error models. It compares predicted and actual logical-bit flips from supplied samples.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for small, reviewable experiments with colour- and basis-labelled Stim models and bit-packed detector samples. It compiles a decoder and predicts logical observable flips for surface-code-style data.
Why use it?
It provides a fixed, reproducible process for a specialised decoding experiment. It also records input conditions and failures instead of silently changing the model or discarding samples.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is xi-zhao/OpenQuantum's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on OpenQuantum itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything OpenQuantum configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

chromobius-decoding scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (references/native-example.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Chromobius 色码解码

原生 SDK 路径

本能力使用 Chromobius 的原生公开 API。用户需要 带颜色和基标注的 Stim DEM、bit-packed detector 样本与逻辑 observable 解码 时,由 Agent 在固定依赖环境中编写和运行任务代码。

使用 node scripts/sdk-access.mjs inspect chromobius-decoding 定位环境,按完整 SDK 工作流执行。模块导航:chromobius、stim、numpy;导航不是 API 白名单。

固定 Chromobius 1.1.1;DEM 必须满足颜色/基坐标及上游可解码条件。Möbius 解码为近似方法;小例回归不代表阈值、实时延迟或科学验收。

本入口复用宿主文件与代码工具,没有新增通用执行 Tool。原生 SDK 受上游版本、可选依赖、宿主资源与用户授权约束。已禁用或被拒绝的动作不能借代码路径绕过。执行状态和科研验收分别报告。

选择与准备

需要色码 Möbius 解码时选择本 Skill;surface-code memory 可继续使用 qec-memory-experiment,通用搜索式解码可比较 tesseract-decoding。 优先复用已有 Stim 模型与样本,不改变输入模型以迁就解码器。

通过原生 SDK 工作台显式准备固定环境。准备会下载依赖并写入文件; 本 Skill 不自行启动服务,不需要 QPU、账户或额外的专用 Tool。

工作流程

  1. 保存原始 Stim circuit 或 DEM、噪声参数、detector/observable 数量、采样种子和预算。
  2. 检查 DEM 的颜色和基:第四坐标 0/1/2 为 X 基红/绿/蓝,3/4/5 为 Z 基红/绿/蓝, -1 表示显式忽略该 detector。缺少坐标不能自动推断;忽略 detector 会改变问题,须记录理由。
  3. 按固定版本 API 检查 rainbow triplets、movable excitations 和 matchable-avoids-color 条件。不是所有 Stim DEM 都支持;编译或解码失败时保留输入和异常,不静默换模型或丢弃样本。
  4. 用 chromobius.compile_decoder_for_dem(dem) 编译,再用 predict_obs_flips_from_dets_bit_packed 解码。输入为 uint8、little-endian bit-packed detector 样本;核对实际维度,不能把 detector 位与 observable 位混用。
  5. 与同一批样本的真实 observable 翻转逐 shot 比较,报告错误数、总 shots 和统计区间。 固定种子有助于复核,但不承诺跨 Stim 版本或平台逐位复现。
  6. 保留程序、输入、完整输出、版本/锁摘要和检查结果。比较解码器时统一 circuit、噪声、 样本、observable 定义和预算;不要把不同样本的有限 shot 波动当性能提升。

解释边界

Möbius 解码是近似方法,不能把其预测当作最大似然最优解。零观测错误不意味着真实错误率为零。 小型数值回归不验证阈值、可扩展性、实时延迟或完整容错协议。 上游不是正式支持的 Google 产品;固定 wheel 提供 Python 模块,独立 CLI 另需源码构建。 Sinter 为可选工作流,未包含在本环境的直接依赖中。

本入口是 L0 原生 SDK 工作流,不增加科学验收器; scientificValidation=not_evaluated,最终验收仍由已有的 central Acceptance Builder 推导。

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

chromobius-decoding is a skill published in the GitHub repository xi-zhao/OpenQuantum (71 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 58 tokens to every session and 1,095 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-10-27.
