Description

I put @apavlen 's initial ideas in a wiki so that we can edit!

Right now, the user must manually add their algorithm to the simulator for it to be called. This limits it to python and also limits it in many other ways.

We want to redesign this to be as pluggable as possible.

Research direction

Start with the Pluggable Simulator Design wiki linked in the issue, then inspect simulator/InMemorySimulator.py at the referenced call site. Compare the current manual algorithm registration with the design discussion. The issue does not define acceptance criteria, so completion depends on an agreed design and implementation of the pluggable simulator.
