drug-discovery-pipeline SKILL.md skillA

drug-discovery-pipeline from nvidia/skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add nvidia/skills/drug-discovery-pipeline@git:20261002.85ad857

Pins git:20261002.85ad857 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

NOTE: molecule and target inputs and your NGC_API_KEY are transmitted to external NVIDIA-hosted API endpoints on every call. Use local NIM containers for confidential or proprietary data. Run a complete computational drug discovery pipeline using NVIDIA BioNeMo NIMs: generate drug-like molecules with GenMol, dock them to a protein target with DiffDock, then predict binding affinity with Boltz2. Use this skill whenever the user wants to generate and screen small molecule drug candidates…

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

# Drug Discovery Pipeline

Screen drug candidates end-to-end using three BioNeMo NIMs in sequence:

```
Step 1: GenMol    →  Step 2: DiffDock  →  Step 3: Boltz2
(Generate mols)      (Dock to target)      (Predict affinity)
```

---

## Overview

This pipeline is used for:
- **De novo hit discovery**: generate drug-like molecules and screen them against a target
- **Lead optimization**: start from a known scaffold and generate improved analogs, then dock and score
- **Virtual screening**: dock a library of candidates and filter by docking confidence + affinity

---

## Before you start

Confirm with the user:
1. **Target protein**: PDB file or sequence of the binding target
2. **Starting point**: de novo (no scaffold) or scaffold decoration (known core)?
3. **Scoring**: drug-likeness (QED) or lipophilicity (LogP)?
4. **API mode**: hosted or local Docker?

For local Docker, do not assume all NIMs are running on `localhost:8000` at the
same time. Either run one container at a time and hand files/results between
steps, or start each NIM on a distinct host port and set the per-step URLs.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nvidia/skills/drug-discovery-pipeline@sha256:15a8d2235a8d01a3

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261002.85ad857, 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.
