What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps you work directly with ESM protein models without piecing together model IDs, authentication rules, and workflow details from multiple sources. It turns protein sequence design, embedding generation, and structure prediction into a guided workflow for research and engineering tasks.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Protein sequence generation with ESM3 for masked completion, variant design, inverse folding, and function-conditioned generation.
- Embedding and similarity workflows with ESM C for clustering, classification, retrieval, and downstream machine learning features.
- Hosted inference guidance for Forge and Biohub, including authentication, batch requests, rate limits, and retry patterns.
- Structure prediction and all-atom folding references, including ESMFold2 and PDB or mmCIF export.
- Use case: a researcher can design protein variants, score them with embeddings, and validate the best candidates with structure prediction in one workflow.
Quick Start
Use the esm skill to complete a masked protein sequence with ESM3 and return the designed amino acid sequence.
