What it does

Iuphar Pharmacology is an agent skill from QSong-github/DrugClaw. Query the IUPHAR/BPS Guide to Pharmacology REST API for drug targets, ligands (drugs/compounds), and their interactions. Use whenever the user asks about pharmacological targets, receptor–ligand relationships, drug mechanisms of action, or wants to look up any drug or target name in IUPHAR. Supports single entity or batch queries. No API key required.

Its SKILL.md is about 680 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files (for example `README.md`, `__init__.py` and `example.py`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering REST APIs. The repository describes itself as: 🦀 Agentic RAG for drug intelligence · 57 skills · 15 task categories · DTI · ADR · DDI · PGx · Repurposing · Powered by LangGraph.

Requirements

Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit bc7b93e. 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 script files (Python), which the agent can run.
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):
- guidetopharmacology.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

Iuphar Pharmacology loads about 678 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 93 tokens; SKILL.md has 187 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~93
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~678

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 187 words (~678 tokens).

“Query the expert-curated IUPHAR database for ligands (drugs/compounds), targets (receptors/enzymes/channels), and ligand–target interactions.”
