166 research skills maintained by K-Dense (formerly Claude Scientific Skills), spanning bioinformatics, cheminformatics, clinical research, materials and physics, including unified access to 78 public databases such as PubChem and UniProt. Works with Claude Code, Codex and Cursor.

Unified database lookup skill from K-Dense's scientific collection: reproducibly queries about 80 public database APIs such as PubChem, UniProt, ChEMBL, ClinicalTrials.gov and FRED, returning traceable results with endpoints, parameters and count checks. Some need API keys.

Teaches agents standard single-cell RNA-seq analysis with Scanpy: QC, normalization, PCA/UMAP, clustering, differential expression and plots, with ready-to-run pipeline scripts and guidance on converting Seurat and other R objects to h5ad. Needs Python 3.12+; by K-Dense.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin that guides sequencing analysis from BCL/FASTQ: QC, RNA-seq differential expression, single-cell, variant calling and metagenomics, favoring nf-core and other public pipelines with reproducible run logs. Checks for local tools first. Research use only.

About 40 research skills from Google DeepMind: search arXiv, PubMed and OpenAlex, query UniProt, PDB, ClinVar, ChEMBL and more, run AlphaGenome variant analysis and render structures in PyMOL. Requires uv; AlphaGenome needs an API key, and keys raise limits for OpenAlex, ClinVar and others.

From Harvard Medical School's Zitnik Lab: one MCP connecting 1,000+ scientific tools and databases for drugs and targets, genes and proteins, clinical trials, FDA data and PubMed, for biomedical and drug research. Runs with uv; some sources need API keys; medical conclusions need expert review.
