What it does

Mcpmed Bioinformatics Server is an agent skill from FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills. Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for bioinformatics web services like GEO, STRING, and UCSC Cell Browser.

Its SKILL.md is about 350 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: [{"system":"Python 3.10+"}]

It sits in Research & Science, covering Bioinformatics and MCP servers. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: The largest open-source medical AI skills library for OpenClaw🦞. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Bioinformatics
  • Tasks that involve MCP servers

Example prompts

  • “/mcpmed-bioinformatics-server”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): [{"system":"Python 3.10+"}]
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): run_shell_command

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. GEO Integration: Search and retrieve Gene Expression Omnibus metadata autonomously.
  2. STRING DB Access: Query protein-protein interaction networks contextually.
  3. UCSC Cell Browser: Programmatic access to single-cell datasets.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b1f9b6e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • run_shell_command

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    [{"system":"Python 3.10+"}]

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Mcpmed Bioinformatics Server loads about 353 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 34 tokens; SKILL.md has 135 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~34
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~353

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.

Safety

Auto-check passed

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

MCPmed Bioinformatics Web Services

Adapts the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to bioinformatics web server backends. This creates a standardized, machine-actionable layer for LLMs to interact with external biological resources, matching the 2026 standard for agentic tools.

When to Use This Skill

  • "Query STRING database for protein-protein interactions via MCP"
  • "Fetch dataset metadata from GEO using MCPmed"
  • "Access UCSC Cell Browser data through MCP"

Core Capabilities

  1. GEO Integration: Search and retrieve Gene Expression Omnibus metadata autonomously.
  2. STRING DB Access: Query protein-protein interaction networks contextually.
  3. UCSC Cell Browser: Programmatic access to single-cell datasets.

Workflow

  1. Step 1: Start the MCPmed server to expose the bioinformatics backend tools.
  2. Step 2: Connect the LLM client using MCP to query the integrated databases.

Example Usage

User: "Query the STRING database for interactions with TP53."

Agent Action:

bash
python3 -m mcpmed.cli query string --gene TP53
