Use when the user is doing AI/ML work in a scientific domain such as biology, chemistry, physics, astronomy, climate, genomics, materials, medicine, ecology, energy, engineering, math, drug discovery, protein design, weather modeling, theorem proving, single-cell, or PDE solving. Hugging Science is a curated catalog of scientific datasets, models, blog posts, and interactive Spaces. This skill helps discover and use resources via `datasets`, `transformers`, the HF Inference API, `gradio_client`,

Hugging Science is a curated, LLM-friendly index of scientific datasets, models, blog posts, and interactive demos for ML researchers. Use it when a scientific ML question lands in front of you — it's much higher signal than generic search and the entries are pre-filtered for quality and openness.
There are two related surfaces, and you should use both:
huggingscience.co — a static, parseable index of resources across 17 scientific domains. It exposes llms.txt (compact), llms-full.txt (full content), and topics/<slug>.md (per-domain). These are markdown files designed to be fetched and read.hugging-science Hugging Face organization — huggingface.co/hugging-science — community-submitted datasets, a few models, and ~27 interactive Spaces (notably BoltzGen for protein/binder design, Dataset Quest for submissions, and Science Release Heatmap for ecosystem visualization).The catalog points to resources hosted on the broader Hugging Face Hub. So an entry like arcinstitute/opengenome2 is a regular HF dataset that you load with the datasets library; an entry like facebook/esm2_t33_650M_UR50D is a regular HF model you load with transformers. The catalog's job is curation and discovery; usage goes through standard Hugging Face APIs.
Engage this skill when the user's task involves AI/ML applied to science. Common signals:
If the task is generic ML (recommendation systems, chatbot RAG, vision on cats and dogs), this skill is not the right tool — defer to general HF Hub knowledge instead.
Most invocations follow this five-step loop. Don't skip discovery — the value of Hugging Science is that it has already filtered hundreds of resources down to high-signal picks per domain.
Map the user's task to one or more of the 17 topic slugs:
astronomy · benchmark · biology · biotechnology · chemistry · climate · conservation · earth-science · ecology · energy · engineering · genomics · materials-science · mathematics · medicine · physics · scientific-reasoning
Some tasks span multiple topics (e.g., drug discovery → chemistry + biology + medicine). Fetch each relevant topic.
