What it does

Molfeat is an agent skill from lamm-mit/scienceclaw. Molecular ML featurization library (100+ featurizers: ECFP, descriptors, ChemBERTa). Input: SMILES strings you already possess. Output: numerical feature vectors for QSAR/ML models. Does NOT retrieve compounds from any database — querying by topic name returns only a metadata stub. Use pubchem or chembl to obtain SMILES first, then featurize here. For ADMET predictions use tdc.

Its SKILL.md is about 4.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 10 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/api_reference.md`, `references/available_featurizers.md` and `references/examples.md`).

It sits in Research & Science, covering Drug discovery and cheminformatics and Machine learning. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Drug discovery and cheminformatics
  • Tasks that involve Machine learning

Example prompts

  • “/molfeat”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Calculators (molfeat.calc)
  2. Transformers (molfeat.trans)
  3. Pretrained Transformers (molfeat.trans.pretrained)

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 4 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • uv

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • molfeat-docs.datamol.io
    • github.com
    • pypi.org
    • portal.valencelabs.com

    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

Molfeat loads about 4.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~14k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 97 tokens; SKILL.md has 929 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~97
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~14k

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

⚠️ When NOT To Use This Skill

Do NOT invoke molfeat if you want to:

  • Find compounds related to a research topic (e.g. "KRAS covalent inhibitors") → use pubchem or chembl
  • Get ADMET or bioactivity predictions → use tdc
  • Retrieve compound structures or binding data → use pubchem or chembl

molfeat requires SMILES strings you already have. It converts those structures into numerical feature vectors for ML models — it does not retrieve structures from any database. Invoking the demo script without SMILES input returns only a metadata confirmation that the library is available.

Correct agent workflow:

  1. Get SMILES from pubchem/chembl
  2. Pass those SMILES to molfeat to generate ECFP fingerprints, descriptors, or ChemBERTa embeddings
  3. Use those features in a QSAR model

Overview

Molfeat is a comprehensive Python library for molecular featurization that unifies 100+ pre-trained embeddings and hand-crafted featurizers. Convert chemical structures (SMILES strings or RDKit molecules) into numerical representations for machine learning tasks including QSAR modeling, virtual screening, similarity searching, and deep learning applications. Features fast parallel processing, scikit-learn compatible transformers, and built-in caching.

When to Use This Skill

This skill should be used when working with:

  • Molecular machine learning: Building QSAR/QSPR models, property prediction
  • Virtual screening: Ranking compound libraries for biological activity
  • Similarity searching: Finding structurally similar molecules
  • Chemical space analysis: Clustering, visualization, dimensionality reduction
  • Deep learning: Training neural networks on molecular data
  • Featurization pipelines: Converting SMILES to ML-ready representations
  • Cheminformatics: Any task requiring molecular feature extraction

Installation

bash
uv pip install molfeat

# With all optional dependencies
uv pip install "molfeat[all]"

Optional dependencies for specific featurizers:

  • molfeat[dgl] - GNN models (GIN variants)
  • molfeat[graphormer] - Graphormer models
  • molfeat[transformer] - ChemBERTa, ChemGPT, MolT5
  • molfeat[fcd] - FCD descriptors
  • molfeat[map4] - MAP4 fingerprints

Core Concepts

Molfeat organizes featurization into three hierarchical classes:

1. Calculators (molfeat.calc)

Callable objects that convert individual molecules into feature vectors. Accept RDKit Chem.Mol objects or SMILES strings.

Use calculators for:

  • Single molecule featurization
  • Custom processing loops
  • Direct feature computation

Example:

python
from molfeat.calc import FPCalculator

calc = FPCalculator("ecfp", radius=3, fpSize=2048)
features = calc("CCO")  # Returns numpy array (2048,)
2. Transformers (molfeat.trans)

Scikit-learn compatible transformers that wrap calculators for batch processing with parallelization.

Use transformers for:

  • Batch featurization of molecular datasets
  • Integration with scikit-learn pipelines
  • Parallel processing (automatic CPU utilization)

Example:

python
from molfeat.trans import MoleculeTransformer
from molfeat.calc import FPCalculator

transformer = MoleculeTransformer(FPCalculator("ecfp"), n_jobs=-1)
features = transformer(smiles_list)  # Parallel processing
3. Pretrained Transformers (molfeat.trans.pretrained)

Specialized transformers for deep learning models with batched inference and caching.

Use pretrained transformers for:

  • State-of-the-art molecular embeddings
  • Transfer learning from large chemical datasets
  • Deep learning feature extraction

Example:

python
from molfeat.trans.pretrained import PretrainedMolTransformer

transformer = PretrainedMolTransformer("ChemBERTa-77M-MLM", n_jobs=-1)
embeddings = transformer(smiles_list)  # Deep learning embeddings

Quick Start Workflow

Basic Featurization
python
import datamol as dm
from molfeat.calc import FPCalculator
from molfeat.trans import MoleculeTransformer

# Load molecular data
smiles = ["CCO", "CC(=O)O", "c1ccccc1", "CC(C)O"]

# Create calculator and transformer
calc = FPCalculator("ecfp", radius=3)
transformer = MoleculeTransformer(calc, n_jobs=-1)

# Featurize molecules
features = transformer(smiles)
print(f"Shape: {features.shape}")  # (4, 2048)
Save and Load Configuration
python
# Save featurizer configuration for reproducibility
transformer.to_state_yaml_file("featurizer_config.yml")

# Reload exact configuration
loaded = MoleculeTransformer.from_state_yaml_file("featurizer_config.yml")
Handle Errors Gracefully
python
# Process dataset with potentially invalid SMILES
transformer = MoleculeTransformer(
    calc,
    n_jobs=-1,
    ignore_errors=True,  # Continue on failures
    verbose=True          # Log error details
)

features = transformer(smiles_with_errors)
# Returns None for failed molecules

Choosing the Right Featurizer

For Traditional Machine Learning (RF, SVM, XGBoost)

Start with fingerprints:

python
# ECFP - Most popular, general-purpose
FPCalculator("ecfp", radius=3, fpSize=2048)

# MACCS - Fast, good for scaffold hopping
FPCalculator("maccs")

# MAP4 - Efficient for large-scale screening
FPCalculator("map4")

For interpretable models:

python
# RDKit 2D descriptors (200+ named properties)
from molfeat.calc import RDKitDescriptors2D
RDKitDescriptors2D()

# Mordred (1800+ comprehensive descriptors)
from molfeat.calc import MordredDescriptors
MordredDescriptors()

Combine multiple featurizers:

python
from molfeat.trans import FeatConcat

concat = FeatConcat([
    FPCalculator("maccs"),      # 167 dimensions
    FPCalculator("ecfp")         # 2048 dimensions
])  # Result: 2215-dimensional combined features
For Deep Learning

Transformer-based embeddings:

python
# ChemBERTa - Pre-trained on 77M PubChem compounds
PretrainedMolTransformer("ChemBERTa-77M-MLM")

# ChemGPT - Autoregressive language model
PretrainedMolTransformer("ChemGPT-1.2B")

Graph neural networks:

python
# GIN models with different pre-training objectives
PretrainedMolTransformer("gin-supervised-masking")
PretrainedMolTransformer("gin-supervised-infomax")

# Graphormer for quantum chemistry
PretrainedMolTransformer("Graphormer-pcqm4mv2")
For Similarity Searching
python
# ECFP - General purpose, most widely used
FPCalculator("ecfp")

# MACCS - Fast, scaffold-based similarity
FPCalculator("maccs")

# MAP4 - Efficient for large databases
FPCalculator("map4")

# USR/USRCAT - 3D shape similarity
from molfeat.calc import USRDescriptors
USRDescriptors()
For Pharmacophore-Based Approaches
python
# FCFP - Functional group based
FPCalculator("fcfp")

# CATS - Pharmacophore pair distributions
from molfeat.calc import CATSCalculator
CATSCalculator(mode="2D")

# Gobbi - Explicit pharmacophore features
FPCalculator("gobbi2D")

Common Workflows

Building a QSAR Model
python
from molfeat.trans import MoleculeTransformer
from molfeat.calc import FPCalculator
from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestRegressor
from sklearn.model_selection import cross_val_score

# Featurize molecules
transformer = MoleculeTransformer(FPCalculator("ecfp"), n_jobs=-1)
X = transformer(smiles_train)

# Train model
model = RandomForestRegressor(n_estimators=100)
scores = cross_val_score(model, X, y_train, cv=5)
print(f"R² = {scores.mean():.3f}")

# Save configuration for deployment
transformer.to_state_yaml_file("production_featurizer.yml")
Virtual Screening Pipeline
python
from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier

# Train on known actives/inactives
transformer = MoleculeTransformer(FPCalculator("ecfp"), n_jobs=-1)
X_train = transformer(train_smiles)
clf = RandomForestClassifier(n_estimators=500)
clf.fit(X_train, train_labels)

# Screen large library
X_screen = transformer(screening_library)  # e.g., 1M compounds
predictions = clf.predict_proba(X_screen)[:, 1]

# Rank and select top hits
top_indices = predictions.argsort()[::-1][:1000]
top_hits = [screening_library[i] for i in top_indices]
python
from sklearn.metrics.pairwise import cosine_similarity

# Query molecule
calc = FPCalculator("ecfp")
query_fp = calc(query_smiles).reshape(1, -1)

# Database fingerprints
transformer = MoleculeTransformer(calc, n_jobs=-1)
database_fps = transformer(database_smiles)

# Compute similarity
similarities = cosine_similarity(query_fp, database_fps)[0]
top_similar = similarities.argsort()[-10:][::-1]
Scikit-learn Pipeline Integration
python
from sklearn.pipeline import Pipeline
from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier

# Create end-to-end pipeline
pipeline = Pipeline([
    ('featurizer', MoleculeTransformer(FPCalculator("ecfp"), n_jobs=-1)),
    ('classifier', RandomForestClassifier(n_estimators=100))
])

# Train and predict directly on SMILES
pipeline.fit(smiles_train, y_train)
predictions = pipeline.predict(smiles_test)
Comparing Multiple Featurizers
python
featurizers = {
    'ECFP': FPCalculator("ecfp"),
    'MACCS': FPCalculator("maccs"),
    'Descriptors': RDKitDescriptors2D(),
    'ChemBERTa': PretrainedMolTransformer("ChemBERTa-77M-MLM")
}

results = {}
for name, feat in featurizers.items():
    transformer = MoleculeTransformer(feat, n_jobs=-1)
    X = transformer(smiles)
    # Evaluate with your ML model
    score = evaluate_model(X, y)
    results[name] = score

Discovering Available Featurizers

Use the ModelStore to explore all available featurizers:

python
from molfeat.store.modelstore import ModelStore

store = ModelStore()

# List all available models
all_models = store.available_models
print(f"Total featurizers: {len(all_models)}")

# Search for specific models
chemberta_models = store.search(name="ChemBERTa")
for model in chemberta_models:
    print(f"- {model.name}: {model.description}")

# Get usage information
model_card = store.search(name="ChemBERTa-77M-MLM")[0]
model_card.usage()  # Display usage examples

# Load model
transformer = store.load("ChemBERTa-77M-MLM")

Advanced Features

Custom Preprocessing
python
class CustomTransformer(MoleculeTransformer):
    def preprocess(self, mol):
        """Custom preprocessing pipeline"""
        if isinstance(mol, str):
            mol = dm.to_mol(mol)
        mol = dm.standardize_mol(mol)
        mol = dm.remove_salts(mol)
        return mol

transformer = CustomTransformer(FPCalculator("ecfp"), n_jobs=-1)
Batch Processing Large Datasets
python
def featurize_in_chunks(smiles_list, transformer, chunk_size=10000):
    """Process large datasets in chunks to manage memory"""
    all_features = []
    for i in range(0, len(smiles_list), chunk_size):
        chunk = smiles_list[i:i+chunk_size]
        features = transformer(chunk)
        all_features.append(features)
    return np.vstack(all_features)
Caching Expensive Embeddings
python
import pickle

cache_file = "embeddings_cache.pkl"
transformer = PretrainedMolTransformer("ChemBERTa-77M-MLM", n_jobs=-1)

try:
    with open(cache_file, "rb") as f:
        embeddings = pickle.load(f)
except FileNotFoundError:
    embeddings = transformer(smiles_list)
    with open(cache_file, "wb") as f:
        pickle.dump(embeddings, f)

Performance Tips

  1. Use parallelization: Set n_jobs=-1 to utilize all CPU cores
  2. Batch processing: Process multiple molecules at once instead of loops
  3. Choose appropriate featurizers: Fingerprints are faster than deep learning models
  4. Cache pretrained models: Leverage built-in caching for repeated use
  5. Use float32: Set dtype=np.float32 when precision allows
  6. Handle errors efficiently: Use ignore_errors=True for large datasets
