matchms

matchms is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from dralkh/seerai. It costs 62 tokens per session (1,593 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of matchms, MIT.

A Python library for processing and comparing mass-spectrometry spectra, which are measurements used to identify chemical compounds. It can read common spectrum files, clean and standardize peaks, calculate similarity, and search spectral libraries.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to import and export spectra, filter peaks, compare spectra with cosine-based scores, and identify unknown compounds from libraries.
Why use it?
It reduces the manual work of preparing spectra and comparing an unknown sample with reference compounds. This supports repeatable workflows for metabolomics, the study of small molecules in biological samples.

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

matchms 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.

Matchms

Overview

Matchms is an open-source Python library for mass spectrometry data processing and analysis. Import spectra from various formats, standardize metadata, filter peaks, calculate spectral similarities, and build reproducible analytical workflows.

Core Capabilities

1. Importing and Exporting Mass Spectrometry Data

Load spectra from multiple file formats and export processed data:

from matchms.importing import load_from_mgf, load_from_mzml, load_from_msp, load_from_json
from matchms.exporting import save_as_mgf, save_as_msp, save_as_json

# Import spectra
spectra = list(load_from_mgf("spectra.mgf"))
spectra = list(load_from_mzml("data.mzML"))
spectra = list(load_from_msp("library.msp"))

# Export processed spectra
save_as_mgf(spectra, "output.mgf")
save_as_json(spectra, "output.json")

Supported formats:

  • mzML and mzXML (raw mass spectrometry formats)
  • MGF (Mascot Generic Format)
  • MSP (spectral library format)
  • JSON (GNPS-compatible)
  • metabolomics-USI references
  • Pickle (Python serialization)

For detailed importing/exporting documentation, consult references/importing_exporting.md.

2. Spectrum Filtering and Processing

Apply comprehensive filters to standardize metadata and refine peak data:

from matchms.filtering import default_filters, normalize_intensities
from matchms.filtering import select_by_relative_intensity, require_minimum_number_of_peaks

# Apply default metadata harmonization filters
spectrum = default_filters(spectrum)

# Normalize peak intensities
spectrum = normalize_intensities(spectrum)

# Filter peaks by relative intensity
spectrum = select_by_relative_intensity(spectrum, intensity_from=0.01, intensity_to=1.0)

# Require minimum peaks
spectrum = require_minimum_number_of_peaks(spectrum, n_required=5)

Filter categories:

  • Metadata processing: Harmonize compound names, derive chemical structures, standardize adducts, correct charges
  • Peak filtering: Normalize intensities, select by m/z or intensity, remove precursor peaks
  • Quality control: Require minimum peaks, validate precursor m/z, ensure metadata completeness
  • Chemical annotation: Add fingerprints, derive InChI/SMILES, repair structural mismatches

What ships with it

4 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.

Changes

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.
