- Quantify a western blot from a scanned image (Problem class: Data analysis; Evidence: Reported) — rung-2 Western Blot Quantification skill recipe: uncompressed blot scan + lane map →
analyze_pixel_distribution/find_roi_from_imageband detection → two-step normalization (target → loading control → control lane, total-protein preferred) → replicate aggregation → committedquantify_blot.py+ pinned env +blot01_quant.csv/replicate_summary.csv+roi_overlay.png+provenance.json(skill commit, versions, image sha256, ROI/background/normalization method). Fills the previously-uncovered western-blot catalog skill; cross-linked to the microscopy cell-segmentation recipe as its densitometry counterpart.Reported— integrated-density quantification with total-protein-over-housekeeping normalization is field-standard and directly evidenced (Maloy et al., Anal. Biochem. 2022; Kirshner & Gibbs, Mol. Cell. Endocrinol. 2018; Maestri et al., PLOS ONE 2025); the agent path is not separately benchmarked.Fully open;Laptop. - Track single particles and measure their diffusion coefficient (Problem class: Data analysis; Evidence: Reported) — rung-2 trackpy skill recipe: video-microscopy stack + pixel size / frame interval / diameter → Crocker–Grier detection (

Fills the previously-uncovered trackpy catalog skill; cross-linked to the microscopy cell-segmentation recipe as its motion-across-frames counterpart.Reported— locate→link→MSD→diffusion-mode is the canonical SPT chain (Kusumi et al., Biophys. J. 1993; Taylor et al., Methods Mol. Biol. 2019; Vu et al., BBA Biomembranes 2021); the agent path is not separately benchmarked.Fully open;Laptop.

results/string_edges.tsv) → deterministic pinnedrank_hubs.py(networkx degree/betweenness/closeness centrality replicating CytoHubba “Degree”, Louvain modules) →results/hub_genes.csv/top_hubs.csv+ppi_network.png→ synthesis anchored only to the tables →provenance.json(STRING skill commit, STRING database version + query date, species, score cutoff, gene-list sha256, library versions, model id). Fills the previously-uncovered STRING catalog tool; complements the term-overlap run-functional-enrichment-on-a-gene-list (find central genes vs. name pathways) and takes a gene set from map-disease-to-genes-and-pathways (all cross-linked).Reported— the DEGs→STRING PPI→CytoHubba hub-ranking chain is one of the most heavily documented systems-biology patterns (Hasan et al., Sci. Rep. 2023; Jiang et al., Int. Immunopharmacol. 2024; Mao et al., Sci. Rep. 2025); the exact Claude+STRING-skill composition is not separately benchmarked.Fully open;Laptop.

CD4/MHC-II sibling of the existing scan-protein-for-cd8-t-cell-epitopes recipe (cross-linked both ways); run both for a full vaccine-antigen analysis.Validated— NetMHCIIpan is the field-standard CD4 predictor and the exact predictor→shortlist step is used in current published vaccine design (Yakobi & Nwodo, Biochem. Biophys. Rep. 2025; coverage-optimized peptide sets T-cell-confirmed in Nilsson et al., Front.

Retrospective analyze-what-you-measured sibling of the forward enumerate-analogs recipe (cross-linked both ways).Reported— R-group decomposition and matched-pair single-substituent comparison are field-standard for lead optimization (Raut & Dixit, RSC Med. Chem. 2025; Ding et al., Curr. Med. Chem. 2020; Kombo & LaMarche, J. Med. Chem. 2025) and the BixBench-evaluated skill calls validated RDKit routines; the Claude-driven path is not separately benchmarked.Fully open;Laptop.

Added
- Diagnose a rare disease from patient phenotypes (Problem class: Knowledge synthesis; Evidence: Reported) — rung-2 ToolUniverse Rare Disease Diagnosis skill recipe: patient HPO terms (+ optional candidate variants) captured in a committed

Neuroinform. 2014) and the atlas→confound-regression→correlation workflow is canonical (Kumar et al., PLoS Comput. Biol. 2020) and reused in current rs-FC studies (Messina et al., Neurology 2026; Dai et al., J. Affect.

- Convert raw analytical instrument data to Allotrope ASM JSON (Problem class: Workflow automation; Evidence: Reported) — rung-2 instrument-data-to-allotrope skill recipe taking a vendor-format file (cell counter, plate reader, HPLC, MS, qPCR) through auto-detect →
allotropynative parse → ASM JSON-LD + flattened CSV + exportable Python parser, with strict-validation of the raw-vs-derived split before LIMS / data-lake handoff. First Chemistry focus-day recipe of this run; cookbook’s first workflow-automation recipe spanning the Anthropic life-sciences plugin family. Anchored in the Claude for Life Sciences launch (October 2025), the Anthropic Vi-CELL tutorial, and the underlyingBenchling-Open-Source/allotropyreference parser. - Set up a protein molecular dynamics simulation in GROMACS from a PDB ID (Problem class: Experimental design; Evidence: Proposed) — rung-2 molecule-mcp recipe driving the GROMACS Copilot server end-to-end (topology → solvation → ion neutralisation → minimisation → NVT/NPT → 50 ns production → RMSD/RMSF/Rg) with explicit force-field / water-model / GPU-offload flags. Second Chemistry focus-day recipe; first cookbook entry exercising the GROMACS path of the molecule-mcp bundle.
Proposedbecause no documented end-to-end attempt of this exact assembly exists; closest peer-reviewed class-level evidence is MDCrow (Campbell et al., Mach. Learn. Sci. Technol. 2025, DOI:10.1088/2632-2153/ae4b07) — OpenMM rather than GROMACS but same architecture — plus GROMACS-supporting follow-ons DynaMate (arXiv:2512.10034) and NAMD-Agent (arXiv:2507.07887), and the MDGym benchmark (arXiv:2605.08941) as a reality check (Claude Code / Codex / OpenHands all solve <21% of easy GROMACS/LAMMPS tasks).
