What it does

Patsnap Regulatory Guidelines is an agent skill from patsnap/mcp. Patsnap Regulatory & Guidelines MCP for AI agents. Evidence query tool for regulatory policies and clinical norms, covering semantic evidence retrieval for clinical guidelines and FDA drug labels.

It sits in Legal & Compliance, covering MCP servers. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: MCP server for 200M+ patents, scientific literature, chemistry and pharma records. Search prior art and R&D intelligence powered by PatSnap's proprietary databases via Claude… The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve MCP servers

Example prompts

  • “/patsnap-regulatory-guidelines”

Requirements

  • A credential in YOUR_API_KEY

Workflow steps

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

  1. Normalize Entities First
  2. Choose the Right Tool
  3. Fetch Full Records
  4. Synthesize and Structure Output

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7a4b429. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json).

    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:

    • connect.patsnap.com

    Also links to:

    • open.patsnap.com
    • eureka.patsnap.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

Patsnap Regulatory Guidelines loads about 682 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 225 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~682

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.

Evidence query tool for regulatory policies and clinical norms, covering semantic evidence retrieval for clinical guidelines and FDA drug labels.

Prerequisites

This skill requires the Patsnap Regulatory & Guidelines MCP server to be configured in your environment:

json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "regulatory_guidelines": {
      "url": "https://connect.patsnap.com/6415c2/logic-mcp?apikey=YOUR_API_KEY",
      "type": "streamableHttp"
    }
  }
}

Get your API key at open.patsnap.com. For the full list of available tools and input parameters, refer to the official MCP server documentation: https://open.patsnap.com/marketplace/mcp-servers/regulatory-guidelines


Instructions for AI Agents

Step 1: Normalize Entities First

Before executing any search or fetch operation, normalize targets, drugs, diseases, companies, and clinical trial IDs to Patsnap internal IDs when possible. This improves retrieval accuracy.

Step 2: Choose the Right Tool

Select search tools for discovery and corresponding _fetch tools for full records. Use vector search tools for natural-language evidence queries.

Step 3: Fetch Full Records

Search tools return summary results with IDs. Follow up with the appropriate _fetch tool when the user needs complete details.

Step 4: Synthesize and Structure Output

Lead with key findings, cite sources, highlight data gaps, and use tables for comparisons.


Example Workflows

Label Safety Check
  1. Search fda_label_search for a drug's boxed warnings and dosing.
  2. Cross-check clinical_guideline_search for standard-of-care recommendations.
