Prepares and structurally reviews readiness evidence for ISO management-system and laboratory-competence standards - ISO 13485 medical device QMS, ISO 14971 device risk management, ISO/IEC 17025 testing and calibration laboratories, and ISO 15189 medical laboratories. Use when organizing declared scope, controlled documents, risk-management files, scope of accreditation, traceability, CAPA, external-provider controls, or bounded local evidence manifests, and when separating ISO certification from laboratory accreditation, FDA QMSR inspection, CLIA certification, MDSAP, and EU MDR/IVDR evidence boundaries. Not for legal applicability, compliance, certification, or accreditation decisions; contains no clause text.

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`, and methodology citations.

Local document and PDF parsing that returns spatial text with bounding boxes. Use for extracting text from PDFs, DOCX, Office files, and images; running OCR on scans; producing layout-preserved JSON for RAG; batch-ingesting folders of papers; or rendering pages to PNG for multimodal agents. Distinguishing capabilities are per-token bounding boxes, page raster output, and fully local processing with no cloud API.

Use when working with LaminDB, the open-source lineage-native lakehouse for biological datasets and models. Covers setup, artifact registration, query/search, lineage tracking, validation, ontology-backed annotation with Bionty, collections, branches, storage, and workflow integrations.

Conduct comprehensive, systematic literature reviews using multiple academic databases (PubMed, arXiv, bioRxiv, Semantic Scholar, etc.). This skill should be used when conducting systematic literature reviews, meta-analyses, research synthesis, or comprehensive literature searches across biomedical, scientific, and technical domains. Creates professionally formatted markdown documents and PDFs with verified citations in multiple citation styles (APA, Nature, Vancouver, etc.).

Comprehensive markdown and Mermaid diagram writing skill. Use when creating any scientific document, report, analysis, or visualization. Establishes text-based diagrams as the default documentation standard with full style guides (markdown + mermaid), 24 diagram type references, and 9 document templates.

Securely integrate with the official LabArchives ELN REST-like API and Inventory API v1. Use for regional endpoint selection, signed-request construction, user authorization and UID flows, local LA container validation, and verified LabArchives integration workflows.

Use Gtars for local genomic interval models and set algebra, overlaps and counts, consensus and coverage, tokenization, fragment processing, and refget/BEDbase planning across Python, Rust, and the CLI.

Design custom laboratory hardware as parametric build123d models and export fabrication-ready STEP, STL, and DXF files - microfluidic chips and molds, optomechanical mounts and breadboard adapters, cuvette and microplate holders, tube racks, animal-behavior rigs, and 3D-printed instrument fixtures. Use when a research task needs a physical part that must mate with standardized labware, an optical table, a cage system, or a printer, CNC, or laser process.

Build, register, debug, and operate bioinformatics workflows on Latch using the Python SDK, CLI, Latch Data and Registry, Nextflow, Snakemake, programmatic execution, and Latch MCP. Use when authoring or deploying Latch workflows, configuring resources or interfaces, moving data, integrating Registry, or launching and monitoring runs.
