Searches scientific and technical web content with Exa and extracts page or PDF text from URLs in batches. Supports scholarly discovery with the publication category and academic domain filters. Applies to requests to search the web, look up current research, fetch a page, or extract an article using Exa.
Search scientific papers and retrieve structured experimental data extracted from full-text studies via the BGPT MCP server. Returns 25+ fields per paper including methods, results, sample sizes, quality scores, and conclusions. Use for literature reviews, evidence synthesis, and finding experimental details not available in abstracts alone.
Formulate evidence-bounded scientific questions, candidate hypotheses, rival explanations, causal or associational claims, discriminating predictions, measurements, and preregistration-ready analysis plans. Use when turning observations or preliminary findings into transparent, testable research plans without treating hypotheses as facts.
Prepare evidence-bounded, constructive peer-review drafts and structured manuscript assessments. Use for authorized review of scientific manuscripts, protocols, preprints, or research proposals; reporting-guideline selection; claim–evidence checks; methods, statistics, reproducibility, ethics, figure/table, and citation critique; or revision-response planning.
Query PubChem, search by name/CID/SMILES, retrieve properties, similarity/substructure searches, bioactivity, for cheminformatics. Use when a user asks about a specific chemical, drug, or molecule.
Retrieve and analyze AlphaFold predicted structures for a protein. Use when the user provides a specific UniProt Accession ID and wants structural confidence metrics (pLDDT), domain boundary analysis, or disorder assessment. Do not use if the user only has a protein name, gene name, or amino acid sequence — ask for a UniProt ID first.
Use when you want to search for or download experimentally-determined 3D structures for biomolecules (proteins, nucleic acids, bound ligands). Supports searching by sequence similarity, structure similarity, chemical and other attributes. Also use to get metadata about biomolecular structure experiments.
Synthesizes research findings into coherent narratives with uncertainty quantification. Use when integrating findings from multiple sources, creating research summaries, drawing conclusions from evidence, or communicating research results. Triggers on phrases like "synthesize", "integrate findings", "what's the conclusion", "summarize research", "overall picture", "bring together".
Guides scientific hypothesis development and testing methodology. Use when formulating research questions, developing testable hypotheses, designing experiments, or evaluating research approaches. Triggers on phrases like "hypothesis", "test if", "experiment design", "research question", "how would I test", "is it true that".
Comprehensive biology expert from molecular biology to ecology, covering cell biology, genetics, evolution, and physiology
Integration with protocols.io API for managing scientific protocols. This skill should be used when working with protocols.io to search, create, update, or publish protocols; manage protocol steps and materials; handle discussions and comments; organize workspaces; upload and manage files; or integrate protocols.io functionality into workflows. Applicable for protocol discovery, collaborative protocol development, experiment tracking, lab protocol management, and scientific documentation.
Generate testable hypotheses. Formulate from observations, design experiments, explore competing explanations, develop predictions, propose mechanisms, for scientific inquiry across domains.
