Scientific Agent Skills: A Library of Procedural Knowledge for Research Agents

The paper introduces Scientific Agent Skills, an open library of 163 procedural knowledge modules across 16 scientific domains such as genomics, cheminformatics, medical imaging, study design, and scientific communication. Each skill is organized as a directory containing a versioned, human‑readable instruction file, reference material, and runnable scripts, allowing a language‑model agent to load the appropriate procedure only when needed. The library is publicly licensed and hosted on GitHub, but the authors report no task‑level evaluation or host selection rate.
