Paste into your client configuration file (e.g. ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS or %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on Windows).
05 // Step-by-Step Installation
Verified Process- 1
Clone K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills from GitHub
- 2
Install dependencies with pip install -r requirements.txt (or uv sync)
- 3
Copy .env.example to .env and add your API keys
- 4
Run the skill server and connect your AI client via stdio or HTTP
06 // Execution Boundaries & Security Safeguards
● Context Protection
Keeps heavy parsing and raw file structures external to the LLM. Only sanitized excerpts and structured returns are injected into agent memory turns.
● Directory Allowlisting
Enforce explicit directory allowlists and permission scopes in client configuration to ensure autonomous tool calls never breach system boundaries.
● Process Isolation
Executes in an isolated local child process communicating strictly over JSON-RPC via stdio with explicit process timeouts.
07 // Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ Schema IncludedWhat is Scientific Agent Skills and how does it empower AI agents?
Scientific Agent Skills is an open-source data capability designed for AI clients and autonomous agents. Turn any AI agent into an AI Scientist. The #1 Agent Skills library for science, used by 250,000+ scientists worldwide. 177 ready-to-use validated skills plus 100+ scientific databases covering biology, chemistry, medicine, and drug discovery.
How do I install and configure Scientific Agent Skills?
Follow the step-by-step installation: 1) Verify your runtime (Python 3.10+), 2) Add the configuration snippet into your AI client settings (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json), 3) Restart the client to initialize tool execution.
Which AI clients and developer harnesses support Scientific Agent Skills?
Scientific Agent Skills is compatible with all AI tools supporting tool-calling and the Model Context Protocol (MCP), including Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code CLI, Windsurf, OpenCode, and custom agent runtimes.
What security boundaries and sandboxing safeguards does Scientific Agent Skills enforce?
Scientific Agent Skills executes locally with strict directory allowlists and permission scopes. Heavy parsing and raw file structures stay external to the LLM context window to prevent memory saturation and unauthorized access.
Is Scientific Agent Skills free and open source?
Yes, Scientific Agent Skills is published under the MIT open-source license. You can inspect the source code and contribute on GitHub at https://github.com/K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills.
