About
The ESM (Evolutionary Scale Modeling) skill empowers researchers and developers to leverage state-of-the-art protein language models within Claude. It supports the ESM3 family for multimodal generative design—covering sequence, structure, and function—alongside ESM C for efficient protein representation learning. This skill enables seamless transitions between local model execution and scalable cloud inference via the Forge API, facilitating complex workflows such as inverse folding, variant generation, and chain-of-thought protein refinement for drug discovery and synthetic biology.
