cold-chain-risk-calculatorCalculate temperature excursion risks for cold chain transport.
Cold Chain Risk Calculator is an agent skill from aipoch/medical-research-skills. Calculate temperature excursion risks for cold chain transport. Assesses route risk, packaging suitability, and monitoring requirements for biological samples and pharmaceuticals requiring controlled-temperature shipping.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including scripts (for example `cold-chain-risk-calculator_audit_result_v4.json` and `scripts/main.py`).
The repository describes itself as: Hundreds of agent skills for medical research, including protocol design, data analysis, evidence insights, and academic writing. The licence is MIT.
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 686e09d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pythonFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Cold Chain Risk Calculator loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 62 tokens; SKILL.md has 650 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Evaluates packaging type, transit duration, and route conditions to produce a structured JSON risk score and mitigation recommendations.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--route, -r | string | Yes | Transport route description (e.g., "NYC-Boston") |
--duration, -d | int | Yes | Transport duration in hours (must be > 0) |
--packaging, -p | string | No | Packaging type: dry-ice, liquid-nitrogen, gel-packs (default: dry-ice) |
--output, -o | string | No | Output JSON file path (default: stdout) |
python scripts/main.py --route "NYC-Boston" --duration 48 --packaging dry-ice
python scripts/main.py --route "LAX-London" --duration 120 --packaging liquid-nitrogen --output risk_report.jsonThe script outputs a structured JSON object:
{
"route": "NYC-Boston",
"duration_hours": 48,
"packaging": "dry-ice",
"risk_score": 19.2,
"risk_level": "Medium",
"mitigation_recommendations": [
"Add temperature logger to shipment",
"Pre-condition dry ice 2h before packing",
"Notify recipient of expected arrival window"
]
}The mitigation_recommendations field is always present and contains at least one actionable item. Recommendations are generated based on risk level and packaging type.
Risk score = duration_hours × 0.5 × packaging_factor
| Packaging | Factor | Notes |
|---|---|---|
dry-ice | 0.8 | Standard for -70°C samples |
liquid-nitrogen | 0.6 | Best for cryogenic samples |
gel-packs | 1.2 | Suitable for 2–8°C only |
Risk levels: Low (< 15), Medium (15–30), High (> 30)
Model limitations: The formula does not account for route complexity, number of transit legs, or ambient temperature variability. A 120-hour international flight may score lower than a 48-hour domestic route due to packaging factor alone. Document these assumptions in every response.
Every response must make these explicit:
This skill accepts: cold chain transport scenarios defined by a route, duration, and optional packaging type.
If the request does not involve temperature-controlled shipping risk — for example, asking to track a shipment in real time, calculate drug dosing, or assess non-temperature logistics — do not proceed. Instead respond:
"
cold-chain-risk-calculatoris designed to assess temperature excursion risk for cold chain transport. Your request appears to be outside this scope. Please provide a route, duration, and packaging type, or use a more appropriate tool for your task."
--duration is ≤ 0, print Error: --duration must be a positive integer (hours). to stderr and exit with code 1.--packaging is not one of dry-ice, liquid-nitrogen, gel-packs, reject with a clear error listing valid options.scripts/main.py fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.© aipoch, MIT.

Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add aipoch/medical-research-skills --skill cold-chain-risk-calculator -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/cold-chain-risk-calculator, .gemini/skills/cold-chain-risk-calculator, .github/skills/cold-chain-risk-calculator and .opencode/skills/cold-chain-risk-calculator in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Cold Chain Risk Calculator needs Python for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (python). Our summary lists: Python 3.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
Cold Chain Risk Calculator is published under the MIT licence (declared in SKILL.md). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.5k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 5.9k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
