opentrons-integration SKILL.md skillA

opentrons-integration from k-dense-ai/scientific-agent-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add k-dense-ai/scientific-agent-skills/opentrons-integration@v2.3

Pins v2.3 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Authors, reviews, migrates, simulates, and troubleshoots official Opentrons Python Protocol API v2 protocols for Flex and OT-2 robots. Use for robot-specific liquid handling, deck and labware setup, pipettes, modules, runtime parameters, liquid classes, and Opentrons App analysis. Use pylabrobot instead when one workflow must support multiple robot vendors.

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

# Opentrons Integration

## Overview

Create production-minded Python Protocol API v2 protocols for Opentrons Flex and
OT-2. This skill covers protocol structure, hardware and deck configuration,
liquid handling, runtime customization, module control, simulation, and safe
deployment.

The verified baseline as of **2026-10-01** is:

- `opentrons==10.0.0` for reproducible Flex simulation.
- `opentrons==9.0.0` for local OT-2 API 2.28 compatibility simulation.
- Flex supports API levels 2.15 through 2.30 on current software.
- OT-2 supports API levels 2.0 through 2.28 on current software.
- API 2.29 and later are Flex-only at this baseline. Keep OT-2 at 2.28 or lower.
- Bundled Flex templates retain API 2.29 because step grouping is their newest
  required feature. API 2.30 fixes start-only meniscus aspiration.
- The 10.0.0 library reports a local maximum of 2.31, ahead of the documented
  robot maximum 2.30. Do not infer robot support from that constant.

Read `references/sources.md` for the upstream documentation used for this
snapshot. Recheck the official versioning page before targeting newer robot
software.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add k-dense-ai/scientific-agent-skills/opentrons-integration@sha256:3600fece96f89e7c

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.3, 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.
