pkpd-modeling

pkpd-modeling is a skill for Claude Code from K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills. It costs 273 tokens per session (5,803 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A task guide for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic modelling, which studies how drug concentrations change in the body and how drugs produce effects. It covers exposure calculations, model fitting, dose scaling, drug interactions, and therapeutic monitoring.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to analyze concentration-time data, fit PK or PK/PD models, compare formulations, select or scale doses, predict interactions, or support therapeutic drug monitoring.
Why use it?
It helps separate important modelling choices, such as the exposure measure, population, structural model, variability, and covariates, before interpreting results.

About the project

Scientific Agent Skills is a collection of reusable procedures that give AI agents capabilities for scientific research across areas such as biology, chemistry, medicine, and drug discovery. It is used by researchers and by people building AI scientist workflows with compatible coding agents. The catalogue contains many of the project's skills and supporting instructions.

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

pkpd-modeling 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 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 11 executable files (scripts/_common.py, scripts/_models.py, scripts/allometry_and_fih.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.

Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Modelling

When to use

Any question about what the body does to a drug or what the drug does to the body: deriving exposure metrics from concentration-time data, fitting a structural model, building or checking a population analysis, choosing a dose or a regimen, relating exposure to effect, comparing formulations, or scaling to a new population.

The three rules

1. Fix the exposure metric and the analysis population before computing anything. AUC(0-t), AUC(0-inf), AUC(0-tau) at steady state, and Cavg are different quantities and answer different questions. So do AUCinf based on observed versus predicted Clast. Choosing after seeing the numbers is how a negative study becomes positive.

2. Structural model, variability model, and covariate model are three separate decisions. They get conflated constantly — an extra compartment added to absorb what is really unmodelled between-occasion variability, a covariate added to fix what is really a misspecified absorption model. Diagnose which one is wrong before changing any of them.

3. Convergence is not identifiability. A fit that converges with 200% relative standard error on a parameter, or a correlation of 0.99 between two, has told you the data cannot separate them. Every fitting script here reports both and flags them, because the parameter table alone looks fine in exactly this situation.

Scope

This skill computes, diagnoses, and structures. It does not decide that a formulation is bioequivalent, select a dose for a trial, recommend a dose for a patient, conclude that a drug has no QT liability, or replace a qualified pharmacometrician, clinical pharmacologist, or the regulatory review. The scripts report; none of them concludes. tdm_bayes.py in particular is a modelling aid — any change to a patient's regimen is the treating clinician's decision.

Scripts

cd skills/pkpd-modeling/scripts
Script Question answered
nca.py What are the exposure metrics, and is the terminal phase good enough to report them?
fit_compartmental.py Which structural model do these data support, and are its parameters identifiable?
simulate_regimen.py What does this regimen do at steady state, and to what fraction of the population?
check_popk_dataset.py Will NONMEM read this dataset the way I think it will?
exposure_response.py Is there an exposure-response relationship, and is the plateau in the data?
bioequivalence.py Does the 90% CI meet the criterion, and which criterion applies?
allometry_and_fih.py What is the starting dose, or the dose in a smaller/younger population?
ddi_static.py Does the in vitro data trigger a clinical DDI study under ICH M12?
tdm_bayes.py What are this patient's individual parameters from their measured levels?

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.

pkpd-modeling is a skill published in the GitHub repository K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills (44,469 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 273 tokens to every session and 5,803 once invoked, about $0.0014 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.
