About SciToolAgent

SciToolAgent: A Knowledge Graph-Driven Scientific Agent for Multi-Tool Integration 📌 Contents ⌚️ Overview 📦 Project Framework ⚡ Getting Started 🔧️ Installation 🚀 Quick Start 📊 Data Preparation 🛠️ Custom Tools 📜 SciToolEval 📝️ Cite 🆕 News [2024-12]: The SciToolAgent project is now available on GitHub. [2025-08]: Our research published in Nature Computational Science. ⌚️ Overview SciToolAgent is a powerful agent framework designed to integrate diverse scientific tools with large language models (LLMs) to address the limitations of existing systems in scientific research. By combining LLMs as Planners, Executors, and Summarizers with a comprehensive scientific tool knowledge graph (SciToolKG), SciToolAgent autonomously plans, executes, and summarizes workflows for solving complex scientific tasks across multiple domains. Key Features: 500+ Tools: Access to a vast array of tools, including web APIs, machine learning models, Python functions, knowledge databases, and custom tools for tasks in various scientific domains. SciToolKG: A comprehensive knowledge graph that models relationships among hundreds of scientific tools from biology, chemistry, and materials science.

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
