Agents

AI Agents for Chemistry: From Chatbots to Autonomous Research

A practical guide to eight chemistry and biomedical research agents: how tools, memory, planning and multi-agent roles work, which projects fit different tasks, and how to evaluate bounded autonomy with scientific oversight.

Workflows

AI for Drug Discovery: Agents, MCP Servers and Platforms

Choose tools by workflow stage: target evidence, protein structures, known binding sites, molecular generation, property analysis and screening. Compare research agents, MCP integrations, hosted APIs and platforms, with a proposed end-to-end example and practical evaluation gates.

Workflows

AI for Materials Science: Tools, Agents and Skills

A practical guide to materials databases, research agents and scientific Skills: how to organize crystal screening, computation and analysis while keeping convex-hull, equilibrium, phonon and experimental-stability claims distinct.

Skills

AI Skills for Chemistry: What They Are and How They Work

Understand chemistry AI Skills as reusable procedure modules: what SKILL.md contains, how hosts load instructions, how Skills differ from MCP and agents, and how to select, combine, and evaluate them without confusing guidance with scientific validation.

Overview

MCP vs Skills vs Agents vs APIs: What's the Difference?

Understand how APIs, MCP servers, Skills, and agents divide interface, procedural guidance, execution, and planning responsibilities in chemistry workflows—and how to choose or combine them without confusing access with scientific validity.

Workflows

Protein & Structural Biology AI Workflow

Build an evidence-led protein workflow from UniProt identity and sequences to RCSB structure metadata, observed ligand contacts, and proposed downstream candidate evaluation—with explicit checks for species, isoforms, chains, missing data, and experimental validation.
