When to Use
- Use this skill when the request matches its documented task boundary.
- Use it when the user can provide the required inputs and expects a structured deliverable.
- Prefer this skill for repeatable, checklist-driven execution rather than open-ended brainstorming.
Key Features
- Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Cloud laboratory platform for automated protein testing and validation; use when you have designed protein sequences and need wet-lab experimental validation (e.g., binding, expression, thermostability, enzyme activity) and API-based submission/status/result retrieval.
- Packaged executable path(s):
scripts/validate_skill.py.
- Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.
Dependencies
Python: 3.10+. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
Third-party packages: not explicitly version-pinned in this skill package. Add pinned versions if this skill needs stricter environment control.
Example Usage
cd "20260316/scientific-skills/Others/adaptyv"
python -m py_compile scripts/validate_skill.py
python scripts/validate_skill.py --help
Example run plan:
- Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
- Edit the in-file
CONFIG block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
- Run
python scripts/validate_skill.py with the validated inputs.
- Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.
Implementation Details
- Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
- Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
- Primary implementation surface:
scripts/validate_skill.py.
- Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
- Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.
Validation Shortcut
Run this minimal command first to verify the supported execution path:
python scripts/validate_skill.py --help
Adaptyv
Adaptyv is a cloud laboratory platform for automated protein testing and validation. You can submit protein sequences via API (or web UI), track experiment status, and download results (typically delivered in ~21 days).
For additional details, see:
reference/experiments.md (assay types and workflows)
reference/protein_optimization.md (sequence optimization workflows)
reference/api_reference.md (endpoints, schemas, auth)
reference/examples.md (more code examples)
1. When to Use
Use this skill when you need to:
- Validate newly designed protein sequences with wet-lab assays (e.g., binding, expression, thermostability, enzyme activity).
- Run high-throughput protein design → test cycles and want programmatic experiment submission and tracking via API.
- Compare multiple variants (e.g., mutants, redesigns) under the same assay conditions and retrieve results in a standardized way.
- Optimize sequences for expression/solubility before ordering experiments (e.g., filter or redesign candidates using NetSolP/SoluProt/SolubleMPNN/ESM).
- Integrate experimental validation into an automated workflow (e.g., trigger downstream analysis via a webhook when results are ready).
2. Key Features
- API authentication using a bearer token (
ADAPTYV_API_KEY).
- Experiment submission by providing sequences and an
experiment_type.
- Supported assay categories (see
reference/experiments.md):
- Binding assays (e.g., BLI)
- Expression testing
- Thermostability measurements
- Enzyme activity assays
- Asynchronous workflow support via
webhook_url callbacks.
- Status tracking and results retrieval (see
reference/api_reference.md and reference/examples.md).
- Pre-submission sequence optimization guidance (see
reference/protein_optimization.md).
3. Dependencies
python>=3.9
requests>=2.31.0
python-dotenv>=1.0.0
4. Example Usage
The following example is a minimal, runnable workflow to (1) submit an experiment and (2) poll for completion, then (3) download results. Adjust endpoint paths/fields to match reference/api_reference.md.
4.1 Set credentials
Request API access and a token from support@adaptyvbio.com, then set:
export ADAPTYV_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
Or create a .env file:
ADAPTYV_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
4.2 Install dependencies
python -m pip install "requests>=2.31.0" "python-dotenv>=1.0.0"
4.3 Submit, poll, and fetch results
import os
import time
import requests
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()
API_KEY = os.getenv("ADAPTYV_API_KEY")
if not API_KEY:
raise RuntimeError("Missing ADAPTYV_API_KEY. Set it in your environment or .env file.")
BASE_URL = "https://kq5jp7qj7wdqklhsxmovkzn4l40obksv.lambda-url.eu-central-1.on.aws"
HEADERS = {
"Authorization": f"Bearer {API_KEY}",
"Content-Type": "application/json",
}
submit_payload = {
"sequences": ">protein1\nMKVLWALLGLLGAA...",
"experiment_type": "binding",
"webhook_url": "https://your-webhook.com/callback",
}
submit_resp = requests.post(f"{BASE_URL}/experiments", headers=HEADERS, json=submit_payload, timeout=60)
submit_resp.raise_for_status()
experiment_id = submit_resp.json()["experiment_id"]
print("Submitted experiment:", experiment_id)
status = None
for _ in range(120):
status_resp = requests.get(f"{BASE_URL}/experiments/", headers=HEADERS, timeout=)
status_resp.raise_for_status()
data = status_resp.json()
status = data.get()
(, status)
status {, , }:
time.sleep()
status != :
RuntimeError()
results_resp = requests.get(, headers=HEADERS, timeout=)
results_resp.raise_for_status()

5. Implementation Details
Authentication
- Uses a bearer token provided via
ADAPTYV_API_KEY.
- Requests include header:
Authorization: Bearer <token>.
Core request parameters
sequences: Provided as a FASTA-like string (e.g., >name\nSEQUENCE...). For batch submissions, follow the exact multi-sequence format described in reference/api_reference.md.
experiment_type: Select the assay category (binding, expression, thermostability, enzyme activity). Exact allowed values and any assay-specific parameters are defined in reference/experiments.md and reference/api_reference.md.
webhook_url (optional): A callback URL to receive asynchronous notifications when experiment state changes or results are ready.
Workflow timing and execution model
- Experiments are asynchronous; results are typically delivered in ~21 days.
- Prefer webhooks for production workflows; polling is suitable for demos/tests.
Sequence optimization guidance (pre-submission)
Common pre-checks before ordering wet-lab validation (see reference/protein_optimization.md):
- Identify unpaired cysteines that may form unintended disulfides.
- Reduce excess hydrophobicity that can drive aggregation.
- Screen for low predicted solubility and redesign candidates.
Commonly referenced tools in the workflow documentation:
- NetSolP / SoluProt: solubility prediction and filtering
- SolubleMPNN: redesign for improved solubility/expression
- ESM: sequence likelihood scoring
- ipTM: interface stability assessment
- pSAE: hydrophobic exposure quantification
Notes and constraints
- The platform may be in alpha/beta; endpoints and capabilities can change.
- Not all platform features may be exposed via API; consult
reference/api_reference.md for the authoritative list.
When Not to Use
- Do not use this skill when the required source data, identifiers, files, or credentials are missing.
- Do not use this skill when the user asks for fabricated results, unsupported claims, or out-of-scope conclusions.
- Do not use this skill when a simpler direct answer is more appropriate than the documented workflow.
Required Inputs
- A clearly specified task goal aligned with the documented scope.
- All required files, identifiers, parameters, or environment variables before execution.
- Any domain constraints, formatting requirements, and expected output destination if applicable.
Recommended Workflow
- Validate the request against the skill boundary and confirm all required inputs are present.
- Select the documented execution path and prefer the simplest supported command or procedure.
- Produce the expected output using the documented file format, schema, or narrative structure.
- Run a final validation pass for completeness, consistency, and safety before returning the result.
Output Contract
- Return a structured deliverable that is directly usable without reformatting.
- If a file is produced, prefer a deterministic output name such as
adaptyv_result.md unless the skill documentation defines a better convention.
- Include a short validation summary describing what was checked, what assumptions were made, and any remaining limitations.
Validation and Safety Rules
- Validate required inputs before execution and stop early when mandatory fields or files are missing.
- Do not fabricate measurements, references, findings, or conclusions that are not supported by the provided source material.
- Emit a clear warning when credentials, privacy constraints, safety boundaries, or unsupported requests affect the result.
- Keep the output safe, reproducible, and within the documented scope at all times.
Failure Handling
- If validation fails, explain the exact missing field, file, or parameter and show the minimum fix required.
- If an external dependency or script fails, surface the command path, likely cause, and the next recovery step.
- If partial output is returned, label it clearly and identify which checks could not be completed.
Quick Validation
Run this minimal verification path before full execution when possible:
No local script validation step is required for this skill.
Expected output format:
Result file: adaptyv_result.md
Validation summary: PASS/FAIL with brief notes
Assumptions: explicit list if any
Deterministic Output Rules
- Use the same section order for every supported request of this skill.
- Keep output field names stable and do not rename documented keys across examples.
- If a value is unavailable, emit an explicit placeholder instead of omitting the field.
Completion Checklist
- Confirm all required inputs were present and valid.
- Confirm the supported execution path completed without unresolved errors.
- Confirm the final deliverable matches the documented format exactly.
- Confirm assumptions, limitations, and warnings are surfaced explicitly.
