Best Claude skills for healthcare and medical software in 2026

Interactive visualization library. Use when you need hover info, zoom, pan, or web-embeddable charts. Best for dashboards, exploratory analysis, and presentations. For static publication figures use matplotlib or scientific-visualization.

Use when implementing any feature or bugfix, before writing implementation code

Multi search engine integration with 17 engines (8 CN + 9 Global). Supports advanced search operators, time filters, site search, privacy engines, and WolframAlpha knowledge queries. No API keys required.

Extract text and tables from PDF files, fill forms, merge documents. Use when working with PDF files or when the user mentions PDFs, forms, or document extraction.

Helps users discover and install agent skills when they ask questions like "how do I do X", "find a skill for X", "is there a skill that can...", or express interest in extending capabilities. This skill should be used when the user is looking for functionality that might exist as an installable skill.

Production-ready PDF processing with forms, tables, OCR, validation, and batch operations. Use when working with complex PDF workflows in production environments, processing large volumes of PDFs, or requiring robust error handling and validation.

Use when encountering any bug, test failure, or unexpected behavior, before proposing fixes

Use when completing tasks, implementing major features, or before merging to verify work meets requirements

Query 14+ biomedical databases for drug repurposing, target discovery, clinical trials, and literature research. Access ChEMBL, PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, OpenTargets, OpenFDA, OMIM, Reactome, KEGG, UniProt, and more through a unified MCP endpoint. Use when researching disease targets, finding approved/investigational drugs, searching clinical evidence, discovering genetic associations, or analyzing compound bioactivity data.

Process and analyze tissue images from spatial transcriptomics data using Squidpy. Extract image features, segment cells/nuclei, and compute morphological features from H&E or IF images. Use when processing tissue images for spatial transcriptomics.
