Turn any AI agent into an AI Scientist. The #1 Agent Skills library for science, used by 190,000+ scientists worldwide. 165 ready-to-use validated skills plus 100+ scientific databases covering biology, chemistry, medicine, and drug discovery. Compatible with Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Pi, Antigravity, and the open Agent Skills standard.
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.
This repository also configures its own agents. See what scientific-agent-skills tells them →
