Overview
How to run a climber on a problem, follow it, and pick it up again.
Once you have a problem and a climber, a search puts them together: the climber works on the problem until the budget runs out, and hillclimb keeps every candidate it tried. These pages explain what happens from the moment you start one until you come back to it later. The CLI reference has every command and option.
