Advancements in scientific discovery have always been at the forefront of human endeavor, particularly in complex domains such as molecule synthesis. The intrinsic challenges in these fields stem from two main factors: the vast and combinatorially complex high-dimensional search spaces, and the costly evaluation of scientific hypotheses. Therefore, leveraging machine learning offers a promising avenue to expedite the scientific discovery process.

Reasoning about the use of external resources is an important aspect of many practical applications. Effect systems enable tracking such information in types, but at the cost of complicating signatures of common functions. Capabilities coupled with escape analysis offer safety and natural signatures, but are often overly coarse grained and restrictive.
