What Is This?
OpenClaw Medical Skills is a curated collection of 869 AI agent skills covering the full spectrum of biomedical and clinical research. These skills are designed for OpenClaw / NanoClaw — Claude-based personal AI assistant frameworks — and transform a general-purpose AI agent into a powerful medical and scientific research companion.
Each skill is a self-contained module (a SKILL.md file) that:
- Teaches the agent specialized domain knowledge and workflows
- Connects to real databases, APIs, and computational tools
- Produces structured, clinically or scientifically relevant outputs
We benefit from the open-source community. The full collection of resources can be found here: Awesome LLM Resources
Why This Collection Matters
| Without Skills | With OpenClaw Medical Skills |
|---|---|
| Generic AI responses about medicine | Real PubMed / ClinicalTrials.gov / FDA queries |
| No bioinformatics capability | RNA-seq, scRNA-seq, GWAS, variant calling pipelines |
| No drug intelligence | ChEMBL, DrugBank, DDI prediction, pharmacovigilance |
| No clinical documentation | SOAP notes, discharge summaries, prior auth decisions |
| No genomics support | VCF annotation, ACMG classification, PRS calculation |
| No regulatory guidance | FDA, CE mark, IEC 62304, ISO 14971 compliance |
This collection aggregates skills from 12+ open-source skill repositories spanning academic research tools, clinical workflows, regulatory frameworks, and cutting-edge AI-driven protein design — giving your AI agent capabilities comparable to a team of specialized research scientists.
Installation
Requirements
For OpenClaw Users
OpenClaw loads skills from two locations:
| Priority | Path | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| High | <workspace>/skills/ |
Per-workspace (recommended) |
| Low | ~/.openclaw/skills/ |
Global, shared across all agents |
Method 1 — Clone and Copy (Recommended)
# Clone this repository (skills only — skips large data files)
git clone --depth=1 --no-checkout https://github.com/FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills.git
cd OpenClaw-Medical-Skills
git sparse-checkout init --cone
git sparse-checkout set skills
git checkout main
# Install to your workspace skills directory
cp -r skills/* <your-workspace>/skills/
# Or install globally (available to all agents)
cp -r skills/* ~/.openclaw/skills/
Note: Some skills bundle large data files (databases, datasets). The sparse-checkout method above avoids downloading them. If you need the full repo including all data, install Git LFS first, then run
git clone https://github.com/FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills.git.
Skills are picked up automatically on the next session. No restart needed.
Method 2 — OpenClaw CLI
