Overview

# Life Sciences Marketplace for Claude Code

This marketplace provides MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers and skills for life sciences tools. Install these plugins to access specialized research and analysis tools directly within Claude Code.

What's included:

  • MCP Servers: Connect to external services like PubMed, BioRender, Synapse, and more
  • Skills: Domain-specific workflows and analysis capabilities that extend Claude's expertise

Quick Start

```bash

# Add the marketplace

/plugin marketplace add anthropics/life-sciences

# Install MCP servers

/plugin install pubmed@life-sciences

/plugin install biorender@life-sciences

/plugin install synapse@life-sciences

/plugin install wiley-scholar-gateway@life-sciences

/plugin install 10x-genomics@life-sciences

# Install skills

/plugin install single-cell-rna-qc@life-sciences

/plugin install instrument-data-to-allotrope@life-sciences

/plugin install nextflow-development@life-sciences

/plugin install scvi-tools@life-sciences

```

For servers requiring authentication (all except PubMed), configure credentials after installation:

  1. Type /plugin in Claude Code
  2. Select "Manage plugins"
  3. Find your installed server
  4. Select "Configure"
  5. Enter required credentials
  6. Restart Claude Code

Skills

#### Single-Cell RNA-seq Quality Control

Plugin ID: single-cell-rna-qc@life-sciences

Automated quality control workflow for single-cell RNA-seq data following scverse best practices. Performs MAD-based filtering with comprehensive visualizations.

#### Instrument Data to Allotrope

Plugin ID: instrument-data-to-allotrope@life-sciences

Convert instrument data to Allotrope Simple Model (ASM) format for standardized data exchange and analysis.

#### Nextflow Development

Plugin ID: nextflow-development@life-sciences

Run nf-core bioinformatics pipelines (rnaseq, sarek, atacseq) on local or public GEO/SRA sequencing data. Designed for bench scientists who need to run large-scale omics analyses without specialized bioinformatics training.

Supported pipelines:

  • rnaseq: Gene expression and differential expression analysis
  • sarek: Germline and somatic variant calling (WGS/WES)
  • atacseq: Chromatin accessibility analysis

Features:

  • Download public datasets from GEO/SRA
  • Auto-detect data types and suggest appropriate pipelines
  • Generate pipeline-compatible samplesheets
  • Environment validation and troubleshooting guidance

Requirements: Docker and Nextflow installed locally

#### scvi-tools

Plugin ID: scvi-tools@life-sciences

Deep learning toolkit for single-cell omics analysis using scvi-tools. Includes model selection guidance, training workflows, and integration pipelines for scVI, scANVI, totalVI, PeakVI, MultiVI, and more.
