Summary
Rule-based languages have proven effective for modeling systems of interacting structured entities as typically encountered in chemistry and molecular biology. We present PyKappa, a rule-based modeling package written in Python whose interpreted nature enables interactive simulation and analysis, including by agentic AI. The package seeks to broaden the base of developers by utilizing a widely known programming language and serves as an easy-to-deploy teaching tool. Using PyKappa, we conduct a case study of phase separation.
