πŸ“– About This Skill


name: pharmaclaw-chemistry-query description: Chemistry agent skill for PubChem API queries (compound info/properties, structures/SMILES/images, synthesis routes/references) + RDKit cheminformatics (SMILES to molecule props/logP/TPSA, 2D PNG/SVG viz, Morgan fingerprints, retrosynthesis/BRICS disconnects, multi-step synth planning). Use for chemistry tasks involving compounds, molecules, structures, PubChem data, RDKit analysis, SMILES processing, synthesis routes, retrosynthesis, reaction simulation. Triggers on chemistry, compounds, molecules, chemical data/properties, PubChem, RDKit, SMILES, structures, synthesis, reactions, retrosynthesis, synth plan/route. type: code dependencies: python: ">=3.10" python-packages: - rdkit - gradio - pandas - Pillow system: - java (JRE 8+ for OPSIN, optional — only needed for IUPAC name→SMILES conversion) external-apis: - PubChem REST API (public, no key required) - ChEMBL API (public, no key required) - PubMed/NCBI E-utilities (public, no key required) notes: > OPSIN JAR (13.8MB) is auto-downloaded on first use of IUPAC name conversion with pinned SHA-256 checksum verification (d25bc08f...). All other functionality works without Java/OPSIN.

Chemistry Query Agent v1.4.1

Overview

Full-stack chemistry toolkit combining PubChem data retrieval with RDKit molecule processing, visualization, analysis, retrosynthesis, and synthesis planning. All outputs are structured JSON for easy downstream chaining. Generates PNG/SVG images on demand.

Key capabilities:

  • PubChem compound lookup (info, structure, synthesis refs, similarity search)
  • RDKit molecular properties (MW, logP, TPSA, HBD/HBA, rotatable bonds, aromatic rings)
  • 2D molecule visualization (PNG/SVG)
  • BRICS retrosynthesis with recursive depth control
  • Multi-step synthesis route planning
  • Forward reaction simulation with SMARTS templates
  • Morgan fingerprints and similarity/substructure search
  • 21 named reaction templates (Suzuki, Heck, Grignard, Wittig, Diels-Alder, etc.)
  • Quick Start
