coding-with-metacat

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the process of interacting with the Mu2e file catalog (metacat), enabling efficient discovery, manipulation, and programmatic access to file metadata.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Programmatic File Discovery: Find files and datasets using Python code.
• Metadata Querying: Retrieve detailed information about files and datasets.
• Data Ingestion & Management: Declare new files and update metadata (with explicit user approval).
• Use Case: Automatically find all simulation files for a specific run, retrieve their ROOT URLs, and generate an input list for an art job.

Quick Start

Use the coding-with-metacat skill to list all datasets in the 'mu2e' namespace.
