Workflows

Building an AI Cheminformatics Workflow with RDKit

Design a traceable RDKit workflow for molecular validation, standardization, descriptors, fingerprints and chemical searches. Compare Python, MCP and Skill access, then add bounded PubChem enrichment without confusing tool execution with scientific validation.

Overview

How to Build a Chemistry AI Agent Stack

Design a chemistry AI agent stack by separating language models, orchestration, Skills, MCP interfaces, APIs, libraries and data. Follow proposed molecular and materials workflows, define input/output contracts, and plan permissions, evaluation and reproducible deployment.

Workflows

AI for Computational Chemistry Workflows

Build evidence-aware computational chemistry workflows with AI Skills for structure preparation, phonons, gas-phase ignition, CALPHAD equilibrium, and reactive-MD analysis—while keeping real inputs, execution dependencies, and scientific validation explicit.

Workflows

AI Literature Research for Chemistry

Build a traceable chemistry literature workflow with PubMed MCP: refine searches, inspect metadata and abstracts, synthesize multiple papers, follow citations, and separate retrieved evidence from agent-generated hypotheses.

MCP

MCP for Chemistry: What It Is and Why It Matters

Understand how MCP connects AI applications to chemistry tools and scientific databases. Compare nine implementations, define traceable input/output contracts, and plan a bounded workflow with appropriate permissions, failure handling, and reproducibility records.

Agents

Agents and Skills for Scientific Workflows

Plan bounded scientific agent workflows with inspectable inputs, limited tools, reusable skills, evidence-linked outputs and explicit human approval. Compare the roles of ChemCrow, PaperQA, Coscientist and Scientific Agent Skills without assuming tested interoperability.

Workflows

Evaluating AI workflows for chemical engineering

Plan evaluations that separate process modelling, reaction optimisation and control. Define inputs, operating limits, time-aware validation and approval gates before considering operational use.

Skills

Reviewing chemistry agent Skills before enabling a workflow

A practical review process for chemistry agent Skills: inspect instructions and dependencies, bound tool access, preserve scientific provenance, and plan a small evaluation before authorising broader use.
