Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00106 | $0.02350 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00053 | $0.01175 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00021 | $0.00470 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00235 |
Grade A, and why
proteinmpnn 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.

ProteinMPNN Sequence Design
Prerequisites
| Requirement | Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| Python | 3.8+ | 3.10 |
| CUDA | 11.0+ | 11.7+ |
| GPU VRAM | 8GB | 16GB (T4) |
| RAM | 8GB | 16GB |
How to run
First time? See Installation Guide to set up Modal and biomodals.
Option 1: Local installation (recommended)
git clone https://github.com/dauparas/ProteinMPNN.git
cd ProteinMPNN
python protein_mpnn_run.py \
--pdb_path backbone.pdb \
--out_folder output/ \
--num_seq_per_target 16 \
--sampling_temp "0.1"
GPU: T4 (16GB) sufficient | Time: ~50-100 sequences/minute
Option 2: Modal (via LigandMPNN wrapper)
cd biomodals
modal run modal_ligandmpnn.py \
--pdb-path backbone.pdb \
--num-seq-per-target 16
Note: LigandMPNN includes ProteinMPNN functionality.
Config Schema
Core Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--pdb_path |
required | path | Single PDB input |
--pdb_path_chains |
all | A,B | Chains to design (comma-sep) |
--out_folder |
required | path | Output directory |
--num_seq_per_target |
1 | 1-1000 | Sequences per structure |
--sampling_temp |
"0.1" | "0.0001-1.0" | Temperature (string!) |
--seed |
0 | int | Random seed |
--batch_size |
1 | 1-32 | Batch size |
Temperature Guide
0.1 -> Low diversity, high recovery (production)
0.2 -> Moderate diversity (default)
0.3 -> Higher diversity (exploration)
0.5+ -> Very diverse, lower quality
IMPORTANT: Temperature must be passed as a string, not float.
Common mistakes
Temperature Parameter
✅ Correct:
--sampling_temp "0.1" # String with quotes
❌ Wrong:
--sampling_temp 0.1 # Float without quotes - may cause errors
--sampling_temp 0.1,0.2 # Multiple temps need proper format
Fixed Positions JSONL
✅ Correct:
{"A": [1, 2, 3, 10, 11], "B": [5, 6]}
What ships with it
2 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.
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.

proteinmpnn is a skill published in the GitHub repository zongtingwei/Bioclaw_Skills_Hub (26 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 106 tokens to every session and 2,350 once invoked, about $0.0005 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 2026-08-30.
