LabClaw is a library of scientific and biomedical skills that teach an OpenClaw-compatible agent how to use particular research tools.

The repository describes individual SKILL.md files for biology, data analysis, literature search, visualization and related workflows. It is a skill library, not a complete lab application. Use this as a first read, not a recommendation. Open the original project before trusting details like terms, limits, privacy, cost, setup, or safety.

What it is

Scientific instructions for agents

Each skill describes when a tool applies, how to call it and what output to produce.

Why it stands out

Choose skills for a research task

Domain folders let a team select literature, analysis or visualization instructions instead of installing the whole collection.

Availability

Repository with individual skill files

The full collection or selected folders can be added to a compatible agent setup. Tool dependencies remain specific to each skill.

Why it matters

What makes it useful

A researcher planning a single-cell analysis can find the repository's Scanpy and AnnData skills, while a literature workflow can start with its search and citation skills. The folders provide a task-specific starting point for an existing agent.

Notable points

What stands out

The Scanpy skill includes a quality-control helper that reads an .h5ad file and writes a filtered .h5ad file. Its command exposes mitochondrial, minimum-gene and minimum-cell thresholds, so filtering settings can be recorded alongside the output instead of disappearing inside an agent conversation.

Before using

What to review

Read the selected skill's requirements rather than assuming the library has one shared setup.

Check data access and external service calls for that specific workflow.

Scientific and biomedical results still need appropriate expert checks; the library is not a clinical decision service.

Reader fit

Who may find it relevant

Researchers and developers who already have a compatible agent and want reusable instructions for named scientific tasks.

Teams need the domain knowledge to assess procedures and outputs; the library does not replace that expertise.

Editorial note

Why LifeHubber lists it

The PubMed Search skill uses Valyu's search API and calls for a Valyu key plus Node.js. A folder named after a public literature database can still depend on a separate commercial service. The individual skill file reveals that dependency before you wire it into a research workflow.

Reader note

Before relying on this entry

LifeHubber lists entries to help readers inspect AI projects, not to endorse them or prove they are safe, suitable, accurate, maintained, or right for a specific use. We do not verify every entry in depth. Before relying on anything listed, review the original materials, terms, privacy practices, limits, and risks that matter for your situation.

What to explore next

Compare skill instructions with a complete research workspace.

LabClaw adds procedures to an existing agent. A local scientific workspace is another route when you want chats, code, figures and a notebook together.
