LCA Skills

LCA Skills is a collection of reusable skills, templates, checks, and optional runtime adapters for life cycle assessment work. It is designed for assistants that need to follow a structured study workflow rather than treating every request as a one-step calculation.

• Define the decision, audience, functional unit, and system boundary.
• Plan inventory work and keep study assumptions in durable files.
• Check units, signs, providers, physical balances, and data quality.
• Prepare calculations in openLCA or Brightway when those tools are available.
• Interpret hotspots, scenarios, sensitivity, and uncertainty.
• Review claims, limitations, and release readiness.

LCA Skills does not make an LCA automatically valid. Loading the package in a host does not prove that a database is appropriate, a model is complete, a method choice is justified, or an external review requirement has been met.

• Install the package for your host.
• Read the workflow before running a study.
• Qualify the package in the actual host you intend to use.
