Predict protein structure for monomers and multimers with AlphaFold2 via the ColabFold runner (Mirdita et al. 2022, github.com/sokrypton/ColabFold; AlphaFold2 Jumper et al. 2021). Reach for this skill to fold a sequence or complex with the AF2/AF2-Multimer evoformer, to validate designed sequences by self-consistency pLDDT, ipTM, and RMSD, or to run a quick MSA-backed prediction using the public MMseqs2 server.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# AlphaFold2 (ColabFold runner)

This skill wraps AlphaFold2 and AlphaFold2-Multimer through `colabfold_batch`,
which replaces DeepMind's local-database MSA pipeline with a call to the public
MMseqs2 server — so a prediction is one command and one FASTA, not a 2 TB
database mount. AF2 remains the reference monomer predictor and the multimer
model is still a strong protein–protein validator, but it does not handle
ligands or nucleic acids; for those, route to `boltz`, `chai1`, or `openfold3`.
The ColabFold code is MIT (github.com/sokrypton/ColabFold) and the AlphaFold2
code is Apache-2.0 (github.com/google-deepmind/alphafold); the AF2 model
parameters are CC-BY-4.0 with DeepMind's terms of use.

## Running it

```bash
colabfold_batch input.fasta out \
  --num-recycle 3 \
  --model-type alphafold2_multimer_v3
```

The input is a plain FASTA. For a complex, put every chain on one sequence
line separated by `:` — `colabfold_batch` builds a paired MSA per segment and
runs the multimer model when it sees the colon (so the explicit `--model-type
alphafold2_multimer_v3` above is belt-and-braces). For monomers omit
`--model-type` and the colon. `--templates` and `--amber` add PDB templates
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add pku-yuangroup/openai4s/alphafold2@sha256:137f4859c1ae250b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260828.e9753be, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
