scientific-slidesBuild slide decks and presentations for research talks. Use this for making PowerPoint slides, conference presentations, seminar talks, research presentations, thesis defense slides, or any scientific talk. Provides slide structure, design templates, timing guidance, and visual validation. Works with PowerPoint and LaTeX Beamer.1 installs research-lookupCompile current scholarly evidence for a scientific manuscript or research brief. Use when the user explicitly asks to gather literature, references, background evidence, competing findings, or a manuscript research packet. Uses Parallel Search by default, Parallel Extract for source verification, Parallel Research for explicitly deep/exhaustive work, optional explicit Parallel Chat, and optional Perplexity only when requested or allowed as a failure fallback.1 installs scientific-schematicsCreate publication-quality scientific diagrams using Nano Banana 2 AI with smart iterative refinement. Uses Gemini 3.6 Flash for quality review. Only regenerates if quality is below threshold for your document type. Specialized in neural network architectures, system diagrams, flowcharts, biological pathways, and complex scientific visualizations.1 installs neurokit2Use NeuroKit2 to build or audit reproducible research workflows for physiological time-series preprocessing, event/interval analysis, multimodal alignment, variability, and complexity. Trigger when code imports neurokit2 or needs its current APIs, schemas, and method-aware validation—not for diagnosis or device validation.1 installs docxUse this skill whenever the user wants to create, read, edit, or manipulate Word documents (.docx files) or Word templates (.dotx files). Triggers include: any mention of 'Word doc', 'word document', '.docx', '.dotx', or requests to produce professional documents with formatting like tables of contents, headings, page numbers, or letterheads. Also use when extracting or reorganizing content from .docx or .dotx files, inserting or replacing images in documents, performing find-and-replace in Word files, working with tracked changes or comments, or converting content into a polished Word document. If the user asks for a 'report', 'memo', 'letter', 'template', or similar deliverable as a Word or .docx file, use this skill. Do NOT use for PDFs, spreadsheets, Google Docs, or general coding tasks unrelated to document generation.1 installs scientific-critical-thinkingEvaluate scientific claims and evidence quality. Use for assessing experimental design validity, identifying biases and confounders, applying evidence grading frameworks (GRADE, Cochrane Risk of Bias), or teaching critical analysis. Best for understanding evidence quality, identifying flaws. For formal peer review writing use peer-review.1 installs

markitdownConvert heterogeneous documents and selected URIs to Markdown with Microsoft MarkItDown for text analysis, search, and LLM/RAG ingestion. Covers safe local conversion, streams, Office/PDF/data formats, batch workflows, plugins, vision OCR, Azure extraction, and the official MCP server.60 installs market-research-reportsBuild evidence-traceable market research reports and assumption-driven market sizing or forecast scenarios. Use for market definition, industry and customer evidence, competitive landscapes, TAM/SAM/SOM reconciliation, forecast sensitivity, and auditable report scaffolds.11 installs pdfUse this skill whenever the user wants to do anything with PDF files. This includes reading or extracting text/tables from PDFs, combining or merging multiple PDFs into one, splitting PDFs apart, rotating pages, adding watermarks, creating new PDFs, filling PDF forms, encrypting/decrypting PDFs, extracting images, and OCR on scanned PDFs to make them searchable. If the user mentions a .pdf file or asks to produce one, use this skill.6 installs paper-lookupSearch 11 academic literature APIs for papers, preprints, citations, and open-access full text, and return results with reproducible provenance. Covers PubMed, PMC (full text), Europe PMC (full-text and preprint search), bioRxiv, medRxiv, arXiv, OpenAlex, Crossref, Semantic Scholar, CORE, Unpaywall. Use when searching for papers, citations, DOI/PMID/arXiv lookups, abstracts, full text, open-access PDFs, preprints, citation graphs, author publications, or any scholarly literature query. Triggers on mentions of any supported database or requests like "find papers on X", "look up this DOI", "who cites this paper", or "get me the PDF".4 installs shapExplain and audit machine-learning predictions with SHAP. Use for selecting SHAP explainers and maskers, computing and validating feature attributions, handling multi-output explanations, and producing local or global SHAP visualizations.2 installs autoskillObserve the user's screen via screenpipe, detect repeated research workflows, match them against existing scientific-agent-skills, and draft new skills (or composition recipes that chain existing ones) for the patterns not yet covered. Use when the user asks to analyze their recent work and propose skills based on what they actually do. Requires the screenpipe daemon (https://github.com/screenpipe/screenpipe) running locally on port 3030 — the skill has no other data source and will refuse to run if screenpipe is unreachable. All detection runs locally; only redacted cluster summaries reach the LLM.2 installs

Use when creating visual workflow agents, deploying persistent autonomous agents, or building complex multi-step AI automation systems.4 installs skypilot-multi-cloud-orchestrationMulti-cloud orchestration for ML workloads with automatic cost optimization. Use when you need to run training or batch jobs across multiple clouds, leverage spot instances with auto-recovery, or optimize GPU costs across providers.3 installs huggingface-tokenizersFast tokenizers optimized for research and production. Rust-based implementation tokenizes 1GB in <20 seconds. Supports BPE, WordPiece, and Unigram algorithms. Train custom vocabularies, track alignments, handle padding/truncation. Integrates seamlessly with transformers. Use when you need high-performance tokenization or custom tokenizer training.3 installs ml-paper-writingWrite publication-ready ML/AI papers for NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, AAAI, COLM. Use when drafting papers from research repos, structuring arguments, verifying citations, or preparing camera-ready submissions. For systems venues (OSDI, NSDI, ASPLOS, SOSP), use systems-paper-writing instead.3 installs research-proposalUse when the user asks to write or draft a PhD / doctoral research proposal, research plan, 研究计划书, or 开题报告 — a forward-looking plan of background, gap, research questions, methodology, timeline, and significance, in English or Chinese. Triggers: "write a research proposal", "PhD proposal", "doctoral proposal", "研究计划书", "开题报告", "写博士研究计划". Not for backward-looking literature reviews / 综述 / surveys (use medical-imaging-review), nor grant forms bound to a funder's own template (国自然/NSF).3 installs

Frequently asked questions about pylabrobot

What does the pylabrobot skill do?

Develop and review PyLabRobot lab-automation resources, liquid-handling plans, offline simulations, and supported-device integrations. Use for PyLabRobot protocols or API questions; keep physical execution behind an explicit operator safety gate. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.

How do I install the pylabrobot skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install scientific-skills-pylabrobot` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/scientific-skills-pylabrobot/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Which AI tools does pylabrobot work with?

pylabrobot runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.

Is the pylabrobot skill free?

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.

How do I use pylabrobot after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/scientific-skills-pylabrobot` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.

Can I share the pylabrobot skill with my team?

Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
