uxes. We show that readout operations can also be fully ux-controlled, without requiring microscopic control over tunnel couplings. We identify the minimal circuit that can perform the initialization{braiding{measurement steps required to demonstrate non-Abelian statistics. We introduce the Random Access Majorana Memory, a scalable circuit that can perform a joint parity measurement on Majoranas belonging to a selection of topological qubits. Such multi-qubit measurements allow for the ecient creation of highly entangled states and simplify quantum error correction protocols by avoiding the need for ancilla qubits.
