tooluniverse-adverse-outcome-pathway

tooluniverse-adverse-outcome-pathway is a skill for Claude Code from mims-harvard/ToolUniverse. It costs 94 tokens per session (2,480 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A chemical-risk assessment guide that traces how an environmental or industrial chemical can trigger biological changes and lead to harm; this chain is called an adverse outcome pathway. It also checks hazard classifications, cancer assessments, and lethal-dose data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to map chemicals to biological effects, find their GHS hazard classifications, review IARC cancer classifications, check LD50 data, and investigate related diseases or gene interactions.
Why use it?
It organizes evidence about chemical exposure and helps distinguish hazard information from broader claims about health risk.

About the project

ToolUniverse is a collection of tools, interfaces, and supporting components for building AI systems that perform scientific work. It is for developers creating AI scientist agents that use APIs, databases, machine-learning tools, and domain-specific utilities. The catalogue includes skills, commands, an MCP server, an agent, and a hook for working with the ecosystem.

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

tooluniverse-adverse-outcome-pathway 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 12d 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.

Adverse Outcome Pathway & Regulatory Risk Assessment

Distinct from drug safety (see tooluniverse-toxicology): this skill targets environmental and industrial chemicals where the focus is AOP stressor mapping, GHS classification, LD50 hazard quantification, and IARC carcinogen status — not FAERS signals or FDA drug labels.

When to Use

Apply when researcher asks about:

  • "What AOPs are associated with [pesticide/solvent/industrial chemical]?"
  • "What is the GHS hazard classification for [compound]?"
  • "What is the LD50 for [compound]?"
  • "Is [compound] a carcinogen (IARC classification)?"
  • "Which genes does [chemical] interact with (CTD)?"
  • "Regulatory risk assessment for [environmental chemical]"
  • "What diseases are associated with [chemical] exposure?"

Do NOT use for FDA-approved drugs with FAERS data — use tooluniverse-toxicology instead.

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.
