[json]

The [json] section carries advanced restart metadata used by internal JSON interfaces. Most users should configure the calculation through the normal route and [guess] section instead.

scf_type, basis, library, do_init

Keyword Type Default Meaning
scf_type string empty Saved/imported SCF reference metadata used by a JSON guess.
basis string empty Saved/imported basis metadata used by a JSON guess.
library string empty Saved/imported basis-library mapping used by a JSON guess.
do_init string no Internal no/yes marker set when a JSON basis/library mismatch requires updating scf.init_*; not a normal user switch.

These keys are compatibility metadata, not an alternative to the .oqp method, basis, and reference syntax.
