pesmaker init

init writes a starter YAML file.

Use

pesmaker init run.yaml

If the file already exists, PESMaker refuses to overwrite it.

Next Step

Edit the paths in run.yaml, then run:

pesmaker validate run.yaml
pesmaker next run.yaml

The starter file is only a scaffold. Replace structure paths, potentials, VASP paths, and scheduler templates before using it on a cluster.
