Query MedlinePlus for consumer-oriented drug and health-topic information.

  • SKILL.md covers API, Usage, Key Fields and Data Source
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; reaches wsearch.nlm.nih.gov and connect.medlineplus.gov

What it does

Medlineplus Drug Info is an agent skill from QSong-github/DrugClaw. Query MedlinePlus for consumer-oriented drug and health-topic information. Accepts drug names, RxCUI codes, NDC codes, or ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes. Uses two free, keyless NLM APIs: the Web Service (keyword search) and MedlinePlus Connect (code-based lookup).

Its SKILL.md is about 690 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`).

The repository describes itself as: 🦀 Agentic RAG for drug intelligence · 57 skills · 15 task categories · DTI · ADR · DDI · PGx · Repurposing · Powered by LangGraph.

Example prompts

  • “/medlineplus-drug-info”

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

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

    • wsearch.nlm.nih.gov
    • connect.medlineplus.gov

    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

Medlineplus Drug Info loads about 688 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 70 tokens; SKILL.md has 216 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~70
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~688

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.
