lightcone-cli
lightcone-cli (lc) is the agentic execution layer for
ASTRA (Agentic Schema for Transparent
Research Analysis). Describe your analysis to an AI agent and lc takes
care of the rest — specification, execution, and provenance.
Quick Start
uv tool install lightcone-cli
lc init my-analysis
cd my-analysis
claude
Then tell the agent what you have to start from — a research question
(/lc-new), existing code (/lc-from-code), or a paper to reproduce
(/lc-from-paper).
Skills
| Skill | What it does |
|---|---|
/lc-new |
Scope a new analysis from a research question into a full astra.yaml spec |

/lc-feedback |
File a bug report with version and error context auto-collected |
Capabilities
- Multiverse analysis — define methodological decisions with multiple options;
lcruns your analysis across all defensible paths automatically - Provenance integrity — every output gets a content-addressed manifest;
lc verifydetects tampering or broken chains - HPC-ready execution — Snakemake-backed DAG dispatch with SLURM and container support (Docker, Podman, Apptainer) out of the box
- Reproducible publishing —
lc export wrrocemits a Workflow Run RO-Crate bundle ready for Zenodo or WorkflowHub
