Search and discover NETL EDX CLAIMM datasets with 200+ US-focused critical minerals datasets

  • SKILL.md covers Usage, Parameters, Examples and Notes
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls python3; needs EDX_API_KEY

What it does

Claimm Datasets is an agent skill from lamm-mit/scienceclaw. Search and discover NETL EDX CLAIMM datasets with 200+ US-focused critical minerals datasets

Its SKILL.md is about 570 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/claimm_search.py`).

The licence is Apache-2.0.

Example prompts

  • “/claimm-datasets”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in EDX_API_KEY

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ab9aba1. 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/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • EDX_API_KEY

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

Context cost

Claimm Datasets loads about 566 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 27 tokens; SKILL.md has 122 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~27
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~566

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.

Notes

  • Requires EDX_API_KEY environment variable
  • CLAIMM = Critical and Lanthanide Inorganic Mineral Materials
  • Hosted by NETL (National Energy Technology Laboratory) on EDX platform
  • Datasets include CSVs, shapefiles, and metadata
  • US-focused but includes some international deposit data
