Equipment Maintenance Log

Track calibration dates for pipettes, balances, centrifuges and send maintenance reminders.

Quick Check

python -m py_compile scripts/main.py

Audit-Ready Commands

python -m py_compile scripts/main.py
python scripts/main.py --help
python scripts/main.py --add "Pipette P100" --calibration-date 2024-01-15 --interval 12

When to Use

• Track lab equipment calibration schedules
• Check for overdue or upcoming maintenance
• Generate maintenance reminder reports
• Maintain compliance records for audits

Workflow

1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.

Parameters

* Required when adding or updating equipment ** Alternative operations (mutually exclusive with --add)

Date validation: --calibration-date must be in YYYY-MM-DD format. Invalid dates (e.g., 2024-13-45) are rejected at input time with a clear error message. The script validates the date before storing it.

Usage

# Add equipment
python scripts/main.py --add "Pipette P100" --calibration-date 2024-01-15 --interval 12

# Add with location
python scripts/main.py --add "Balance XS205" --calibration-date 2024-03-01 --interval 6 --location "Lab 3B"

# Check maintenance status
python scripts/main.py --check

# List all equipment
python scripts/main.py --list

# Update calibration date after servicing
python scripts/main.py --update "Pipette P100" --calibration-date 2025-01-15

# Remove decommissioned equipment
python scripts/main.py --delete "Balance XS205"

# Generate compliance report
python scripts/main.py --report
