datamol

datamol is a skill for Claude Code from agentlas-ai/agentlas-desktop. It costs 67 tokens per session (2,231 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A Python-friendly interface around RDKit, a toolkit for reading, changing, and analysing chemical structures. It simplifies common molecule-processing tasks while keeping RDKit molecule objects for compatibility.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to parse and standardise molecules, calculate descriptors and fingerprints, create three-dimensional conformations, cluster compounds, analyse fragments, apply reactions, and process batches in parallel.
Why use it?
It reduces repetitive code and complex setup for routine cheminformatics work. It also provides consistent defaults for processing many molecules.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

datamol scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Datamol Cheminformatics Skill

Overview

Datamol is a Python library that provides a lightweight, Pythonic abstraction layer over RDKit for molecular cheminformatics. Simplify complex molecular operations with sensible defaults, efficient parallelization, and modern I/O capabilities. All molecular objects are native rdkit.Chem.Mol instances, ensuring full compatibility with the RDKit ecosystem.

Version note: Examples target datamol 0.12.x (PyPI stable: 0.12.5, June 2024). Since 0.10.0, modules are lazy-loaded by default (set DATAMOL_DISABLE_LAZY_LOADING=1 to disable). Since 0.12.2, RDKit is a direct PyPI dependency of datamol. Fingerprints use RDKit's rdFingerprintGenerator API (0.12.5+).

Key capabilities:

  • Molecular format conversion (SMILES, SELFIES, InChI)
  • Structure standardization and sanitization
  • Molecular descriptors and fingerprints
  • 3D conformer generation and analysis
  • Clustering and diversity selection
  • Scaffold and fragment analysis
  • Chemical reaction application
  • Visualization and alignment
  • Batch processing with parallelization
  • Cloud storage support via fsspec

Installation and Setup

Guide users to install datamol:

uv pip install datamol

RDKit is installed automatically with datamol. For remote file paths (S3, GCS, HTTP), install the matching fsspec backend:

uv pip install s3fs   # AWS S3
uv pip install gcsfs  # Google Cloud Storage

Import convention:

import datamol as dm

Core Workflows

Ten workflow areas, each with worked code, are documented in references/core_workflows.md:

# Area Covers
1 Basic molecule handling to_mol, batch conversion, error handling, canonical and isomeric SMILES, sanitization and full standardization
2 Reading and writing files SDF, SMILES, CSV, Excel with rendered structures, the universal reader/writer, and cloud or HTTPS paths
3 Descriptors and properties the standard descriptor set, parallel computation, aromaticity, stereochemistry, flexibility, and filtering
4 Fingerprints and similarity ECFP4 and other types, pairwise and cross-set distances, nearest-neighbour lookup (Tanimoto distance = 1 − similarity)
5 Clustering and diversity similarity clustering, diverse subset picking, and cluster centroids
6 Scaffold analysis Bemis-Murcko scaffolds, grouping and counting, and scaffold-disjoint train/test splits
7 Fragmentation fragmenting molecules, finding common fragments across a library, and fragment-based scoring
8 3D conformers generation, access, RMSD clustering, representative selection, and SASA
9 Visualization grids, files, publication SVG, substructure alignment, atom and bond highlighting, conformer display
10 Chemical reactions reaction SMARTS, applying to a molecule or a whole library

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

datamol is a skill published in the GitHub repository agentlas-ai/agentlas-desktop (6 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 67 tokens to every session and 2,231 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-15.
