What it does

Medical Research Toolkit is an agent skill from FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills. 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.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 16 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `OPENCLAW-USAGE.md`, `README.md` and `RELEASE-NOTES.md`).

It sits in Research & Science, covering Clinical and healthcare research, Content repurposing and Academic paper search. It works with PubMed, Model Context Protocol and UniProt. The repository describes itself as: The largest open-source medical AI skills library for OpenClaw🦞.

When your agent uses it

  • Researching disease targets
  • Finding approved/investigational drugs
  • Searching clinical evidence
  • Discovering genetic associations

Example prompts

  • “/medical-research-toolkit”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. Find disease targets (OpenTargets)
  2. Search for drugs targeting those genes (ChEMBL)
  3. Check ongoing trials (ClinicalTrials)
  4. Verify safety (OpenFDA, PubMed)

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 nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • curl
    • pip

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • mcp.cloud.curiloo.com

    Also links to:

    • omim.org
    • open.fda.gov
    • clinicaltrialsapi.cancer.gov
    • github.com
    • everycure.org

    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.

Context cost

Medical Research Toolkit loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~13k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 114 tokens; SKILL.md has 650 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~114
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.4k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~13k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 650 words (~2,444 tokens).

“Query 14+ biomedical databases for drug repurposing, target discovery, clinical evidence, and literature research — all via a unified MCP endpoint.”
