molecular-docking

molecular-docking is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from awslabs/hcls-agent-skills. It costs 83 tokens per session (1,257 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT-0.

A molecular-docking pipeline using AutoDock Vina to predict how a drug-like molecule may fit into a biological target.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare receptor and ligand structures, define a search region, predict docking poses, run virtual screening, and assess results with Vina scores or redocking RMSD.
Why use it?
It helps researchers compare possible binding positions and estimate binding strength during structure-based drug discovery, which studies medicines using the three-dimensional shape of a target.

About the project

awslabs/hcls-agent-skills is a collection of reusable instructions that help AI agents handle healthcare and life sciences work, including genomics, medical imaging, claims, and drug discovery. It is intended for agents running on Agent Skills-compatible platforms, and the catalogue entries are its individual domain skills.

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

molecular-docking 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 12d 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.

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.

molecular-docking is a skill published in the GitHub repository awslabs/hcls-agent-skills (33 stars, last pushed 11d ago), licensed MIT-0. It adds 83 tokens to every session and 1,257 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-30.
