A curated index of datasets, models, articles, and interactive demonstrations for machine learning in science. It covers areas such as biology, medicine, physics, climate, and engineering.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to discover scientific datasets, models, blog posts, and demos for research or machine-learning projects.
Why use it?
It helps researchers find relevant scientific AI resources without searching through a broad, mixed-quality collection.

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

hugging-science 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 7d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/fetch_catalog.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Hugging Science

Hugging Science is a curated, LLM-friendly index of scientific datasets, models, blog posts, and interactive demos for ML researchers. Use it when a scientific ML question lands in front of you — it's much higher signal than generic search and the entries are pre-filtered for quality and openness.

There are two related surfaces, and you should use both:

  • The catalog at huggingscience.co — a static, parseable index of resources across 17 scientific domains. It exposes llms.txt (compact), llms-full.txt (full content), and topics/<slug>.md (per-domain). These are markdown files designed to be fetched and read.
  • The hugging-science Hugging Face organizationhuggingface.co/hugging-science — community-submitted datasets, a few models, and ~27 interactive Spaces (notably BoltzGen for protein/binder design, Dataset Quest for submissions, and Science Release Heatmap for ecosystem visualization).

The catalog points to resources hosted on the broader Hugging Face Hub. So an entry like arcinstitute/opengenome2 is a regular HF dataset that you load with the datasets library; an entry like facebook/esm2_t33_650M_UR50D is a regular HF model you load with transformers. The catalog's job is curation and discovery; usage goes through standard Hugging Face APIs.

When to use this skill

Engage this skill when the user's task involves AI/ML applied to science. Common signals:

  • Names a scientific domain (protein, genome, molecule, crystal, weather, climate, galaxy, EEG, microbiome, pathology, plasma, …)
  • Asks "is there a dataset/model for X" where X is scientific
  • Wants to fine-tune on scientific data, evaluate on scientific benchmarks, or reproduce a scientific ML paper
  • Asks about specific known scientific models (Evo-2, ESM2, BoltzGen, Nucleotide Transformer, AlphaFold-derived, etc.)
  • Needs an interactive demo for a scientific task (binder design, theorem proving, etc.)

If the task is generic ML (recommendation systems, chatbot RAG, vision on cats and dogs), this skill is not the right tool — defer to general HF Hub knowledge instead.

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.
