Research Claude Skills
2 269 research skills from 396 authors. They find sources and get you up to speed on unfamiliar ground. Half of them fit into 2 278 tokens or less — that is what one costs your context window when the agent loads it. 663 ship runnable scripts rather than instructions alone. 4 of them cannot work without an MCP server, most often rube. We also found 264 copies of these same skills sitting in other people's repositories — counted once here, not 264 times.

Identify drug repurposing candidates using ToolUniverse for target-based, compound-based, and disease-driven strategies. Searches existing drugs for new therapeutic indications by analyzing targets, bioactivity, safety profiles, and literature evidence. Use when exploring drug repurposing opportunities, finding new indications for approved drugs, or when users mention drug repositioning, off-label uses, or therapeutic alternatives.
Generates comprehensive drug research reports with compound disambiguation, evidence grading, and mandatory completeness sections. Covers identity, chemistry, pharmacology, targets, clinical trials, safety, pharmacogenomics, and ADMET properties. Use when users ask about drugs, medications, therapeutics, or need drug profiling, safety assessment, or clinical development research.
Comprehensive immune repertoire analysis for T-cell and B-cell receptor sequencing data. Analyze TCR/BCR repertoires to assess clonality, diversity, V(D)J gene usage, CDR3 characteristics, convergence, and predict epitope specificity. Integrate with single-cell data for clonotype-phenotype associations. Use for adaptive immune response profiling, cancer immunotherapy research, vaccine response assessment, autoimmune disease studies, or repertoire diversity analysis in immunology research.
Conduct comprehensive literature research with target disambiguation, evidence grading, and structured theme extraction. Creates a detailed report with mandatory completeness checklist, biological model synthesis, and testable hypotheses. For biological targets, resolves official IDs (Ensembl/UniProt), synonyms, naming collisions, and gathers expression/pathway context before literature search. Default deliverable is a report file; for single factoid questions, uses a fast verification mode and may include an inline answer. Use when users need thorough literature reviews, target profiles, or to verify specific claims from the literature.
Integrate and analyze multiple omics datasets (transcriptomics, proteomics, epigenomics, genomics, metabolomics) for systems biology and precision medicine. Performs cross-omics correlation, multi-omics clustering (MOFA+, NMF), pathway-level integration, and sample matching. Coordinates ToolUniverse skills for expression data (RNA-seq), epigenomics (methylation, ChIP-seq), variants (SNVs, CNVs), protein interactions, and pathway enrichment. Use when analyzing multi-omics datasets, performing integrative analysis, discovering multi-omics biomarkers, studying disease mechanisms across molecular layers, or conducting systems biology research that requires coordinated analysis of transcriptome, genome, epigenome, proteome, and metabolome data.
