molclaw-pack-sidechains

molclaw-pack-sidechains is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from InternScience/MolClaw. It costs 55 tokens per session (808 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A protein-structure tool that predicts the positions of sidechain atoms from a backbone PDB file. A PDB file is a standard text format describing a molecule’s three-dimensional structure.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to pack protein sidechains from backbone structures, with options for compute devices, long proteins, post-processing, and test runs.
Why use it?
It fills in missing atomic detail needed for preparing a protein structure for later analysis.

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

molclaw-pack-sidechains 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.

Invocation

Use the exact tool name and parameter schema exposed by the current harness. Tool names in SDK examples below are raw MCP names, not model-facing aliases. Local files must be uploaded with molclaw-file-transfer before a server tool can use them. Repair PDB inputs first when the workflow requires it.

Usage

1. Protein Sidechain Packing

The description of tool pack_sidechains.

Predict full-atom sidechain conformations from backbone PDBs for protein structure preparation workflows.
Args:
  input_pdb (str): Input PDB file path, required.
  device (str|None): Compute device such as cuda:0, default None (auto by source script).
  chunk_size (int): Inference chunk size for long proteins, default 500.
  no_post_process (bool): Skip rotamer post-processing for faster runtime, default False.
  max_optim_iters (int): Maximum optimization iterations in post-process, default 250.
  steric_wt (float): Steric clash penalty weight, default 1.0.
  optim_repeats (int): Post-process optimization repeats, default 2.
  dry_run (bool): Create a traceable run directory without running inference, default False.
Return:
  status (str): 'success', 'error', or 'partial_success'.
  msg (str): Human-readable execution message.
  input_pdb (str): Input PDB path used for this run.
  output_dir (str): Unique run directory under tool_result/pack_sidechains_result.
  output_pdb (str): Expected or generated output PDB path.
  device (str|None): Device value used for execution.

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.

molclaw-pack-sidechains is a skill published in the GitHub repository InternScience/MolClaw (38 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 808 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-30.
