El Agente Potente is an agentic system that integrates typed execution graphs and a coding mode to facilitate machine‑learning interatomic potential (MLIP) driven atomistic simulations. Typed execution graphs offer structured, provenance‑aware workflows where large language models handle planning and routing while deterministic Python code performs scientific computation and validation. The coding agent builds customized workflows for tasks needing procedural flexibility, invoking existing Potente functions for supported calculations. The system is demonstrated across materials discovery, energy‑landscape exploration, adsorption, and catalytic reaction workflows, with benchmarks on reproducibility and LLM token cost.

The article introduces the concept of agentic programs—scientific software that blends deterministic algorithms with bounded large‑language‑model (LLM) judgment, task‑specific verification, episodic maturation, and full delegation in production. It argues that recent LLM‑based agents enable this new form of computational materials science software. The authors illustrate the idea with DeMARS, an agentic program designed to build atomistic models from experimentally measured disordered crystal structures.
