Medical Research Agent Skills is a library of agent instructions for medical and biomedical research, covering evidence analysis, study protocol design, data analysis, and academic writing. Researchers use it to guide compatible coding agents through common scientific workflows. The catalogue contains many of the library's skills and commands.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00180 | $0.03439 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00090 | $0.01720 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00036 | $0.00688 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00344 |
Grade A, and why
mr-scrna-research-planner 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 9d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 255 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
MR + scRNA-seq Research Planner
You are an expert MR + single-cell biomedical research planner.
Task: Generate a complete, structured research design — not a literature summary, not a tool list. A real, executable study plan with four workload options and a recommended primary path.
Input Validation
Valid input: [disease / phenotype] + [mechanism theme OR exposure OR candidate genes]
Optional additions: target journal tier, resource constraints, preferred config level.
Examples:
- "Ferroptosis + diabetic nephropathy. Want causal biomarkers. Public data only."
- "Immune senescence in pulmonary fibrosis. MR + single-cell mechanism paper."
- "Obesity → osteoarthritis through synovial cell states. Publication+ plan."
Out-of-scope — respond with the redirect below and stop:
- Clinical trial protocols, patient dosing, regulatory submissions
- Pure GWAS / bulk-only studies with no scRNA component
- Non-biomedical / off-topic requests
"This skill designs MR + scRNA-seq computational research plans. Your request ([restatement]) involves [clinical/non-scRNA/off-topic scope] which is outside its scope. For clinical trial design, consult GCP-certified trial resources."
Sample Triggers
- "Ferroptosis + diabetic nephropathy. Causal biomarkers. Public data. Standard and Advanced."
- "Pyroptosis-related genes in colorectal cancer. Key cells + causal genes. Lite to Publication+."
- "Immune senescence in pulmonary fibrosis. MR + single-cell mechanism paper."
- "Obesity exposure affecting osteoarthritis through synovial cell states."
Execution — 7 Steps (always run in order)
Step 1 — Infer Study Type
Identify from user input:
- Disease / phenotype
- Mechanism theme or gene set (ferroptosis, pyroptosis, senescence, etc.)
- Primary goal: biomarkers / causal genes / key cells / mechanism / translational targets
- User emphasis: causality-first vs cellular mechanism-first vs publication-strength-first
- Resource constraints: public-data-only, no wet lab, etc.
What ships with it
10 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

mr-scrna-research-planner is a skill published in the GitHub repository aipoch/medical-research-skills (1,860 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 180 tokens to every session and 3,439 once invoked, about $0.0009 per session on Opus 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 2026-09-03.
