Thanks for reporting this, I believe the warning on GGA=PS is owing to:

I.e. any keyword not included inside the following and is not boolean/float/int (str) would be capitalized:

The warning on ENCUT=550 should be owing to the incorrect classification of it into int_keys instead of float_keys:

I believe it should be a float:

ENCUT = [real]

With Version: 2024.10.22, I am still getting

/net/home/plgrid/plgyantar92/groupdir/functional-input.py:70: BadIncarWarning: Cannot find ZAB_VDW in the list of INCAR tags

/net/home/plgrid/plgyantar92/groupdir/functional-input.py:70: BadIncarWarning: GGA: Cannot find Ml in the list of values
  vasp_input.incar.check_params()

Hi thanks for following up. I just have a look and I believe it's a separate issue related to #4042, i.e. we need to update the incar_parameters.json record.

ZAB_VDW is currently not in the recorded INCAR tags, and GGA doesn't have ML in the recording yet:

But currently I don't have a better way other than doing that manually (which would be very inefficiently) given the amount of possible INCAR tags and their values. Updating the tags should be easier with:

But updating the values is a bit tricky so I assume we need to helper script to do this? Would you be interested? If not I'm happy to get my hands on this a bit later :)

That would be hugely appreciated! You might have misread my previous comment #4119 (comment)

Current we already have a method to get the (tags/keywords/parameters):

What we need is something to update the values, which is a bit tricky. Currently VASP wiki doesn't seem to provide an API to get possible values of a tag directly (do they?), and the webpage format seems pretty inconsistent and probably make scraping infeasible (I'm not a web scraping expert and I wish I'm wrong here).

For example the ALGO tag page seems to list all possible values at the start:

However the GGA tag only listed a small portion and left the rest inside a table:

I do not see anything either.

Scaping is possible, but awkward. One will need to write the scaper specifically for this page and add a number of asserts to catch incompatible changes (those are unlikely in practice though).

I looked into the source of the page at https://www.vasp.at/wiki/index.php?title=GGA&action=edit
and it looks like they define the tag list simply within a table, not using a template (template would make scaping much easier).

It should be still possible to write a dedicated scraper, via pymediawiki + wikitexparser, but non-standard pages like the one for GGA will need to have a specially tailored handler.

I think that the most productive course of action here would be asking VASP maintainers to list all the possible keys in their TAGDEF template (the template defining GGA = PE | ... line) for this page and maybe for other pages with the same problem.

It sounds like the best option to me, not sure what is the best approach to reach out though, perhaps through the VASP forum?

Yup, the forum. I see no better options on https://www.vasp.at/wiki/index.php/The_VASP_Manual#Support
