It is not a standalone tool but a framework for plugin developers.\n\nWhen building an executor plugin, developers inherit from RemoteExecutor and implement job submission, status checking, and cancellation methods. The package provides base classes, data structures (like SubmittedJobInfo), and settings management to ensure plugins work reliably with Snakemake's core. It depends on argparse-dataclass for CLI argument handling, snakemake-interface-common for shared types, and throttler for rate-limiting remote queries.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are developing a Snakemake executor plugin. No, if you are a Snakemake end user\u2014install Snakemake itself and the executor plugins you need. This package is a developer dependency, not a user-facing tool.
