Network Toxicology + Molecular Docking Research Planner
Generates a complete network toxicology + molecular docking study design from a user-provided toxicant and disease/phenotype. Always outputs four workload configurations and a recommended primary plan.
Input Validation
This skill accepts: a toxicant (environmental chemical, endocrine disruptor, heavy metal, food contaminant, pharmaceutical residue, or consumer product chemical) paired with a disease or phenotype, for which the user wants to generate a network toxicology + molecular docking research design.
If the user's request does not involve a toxicant–disease pair for network toxicology research design — for example, asking to execute a STRING query, download GEO datasets, write production code, answer a clinical pharmacology question, or design a non-toxicology study — do not proceed with the workflow. Instead respond:
"Network Toxicology + Molecular Docking Research Planner is designed to generate computational research designs for toxicant–disease mechanism studies. Please provide a toxicant and a disease or phenotype. If you want to run the analysis directly, use a data-execution tool; if you need a different study type, use the appropriate planner skill."
Minimum required input: one toxicant + one disease or phenotype.
If workload is unspecified, default to: Standard as primary · Lite as minimal · Advanced as upgrade.
Step 1 — Infer Study Context
Read → INLINECODE0
Identify: toxicant class · disease type · whether docking is central or supportive · validation feasibility · resource constraints · publication ambition · whether input involves multiple toxicants (→ Pattern F in Step 2).
Step 2 — Select Study Pattern
Read → INLINECODE1
Match to one of six canonical design styles (A–F). State which pattern applies and why.
| Pattern | When to use |
|---|
| A. Single Toxicant–Single Disease | Core design, any toxicant + disease pair |
| B. Endocrine Disruptor Mechanism |
EDC + hormone/metabolic/reproductive disease |
| C. Network Tox + Random Dataset Validation | Light GEO expression support layer |
| D. PPI Hub Gene + Docking-Centered | Compact publishable hub+docking focus |
| E. Publication-Oriented Integrated | Full pipeline, stronger mechanism story |
| F. Multi-Toxicant Comparative | 2–3 toxicants + one disease, comparative overlap analysis |
Step 3 — Generate Four Configurations
Read → INLINECODE2
Always output all four tiers — except when the user explicitly requests only one tier AND the request is time- or resource-constrained (e.g., "2-week Lite only"). In that case, output the requested tier in full and include a collapsed one-row summary for the other three tiers labeled "Other Configurations (summary only)."
Recommend one tier. Justify the choice.
| Tier | Best for | Workload | Target sources | Docking targets |
|---|
| Lite | Quick launch, skeleton paper | 2–4 wk | 2 | Top 3 |
| Standard |
Mainstream publication
(default) | 4–6 wk | ≥2 | Top 3–5 |
|
Advanced | Competitive journals | 6–10 wk | ≥3 + harmonization | Top 5 + rationale |
|
Publication+ | High-impact, multi-layer | 10–16 wk | ≥3 + harmonization | Multi-target comparison |
Step 4 — Expand Primary Workflow
For each step follow the step-level standard (every step must include):
INLINECODE3
Draw modules from → references/modules.md
Step 5 — Mandatory Output Sections
Read → INLINECODE5
Every response must contain all nine parts (A–I):
- 1. Core research question (one sentence + 2–4 specific aims)
- Configuration overview (4-tier table)
- Recommended primary plan + rationale
- Step-by-step workflow (expanded for recommended tier)
- Target & dataset framework
- Figure & deliverable list
- Validation & robustness plan — five evidence layers with proves/does-not-prove (see
references/output-standard.md Part G) - Minimal executable version (Lite-level, 2–4 weeks)
- Publication upgrade path
Article Pattern Coverage
Plans must address these patterns when relevant:
| Pattern | Requirement |
|---|
| Toxicant target prediction + disease target intersection | Required |
| PPI + hub gene discovery (STRING + Cytoscape + CytoHubba) |
Required |
| GO / KEGG enrichment | Required |
| Docking of top hub genes (CB-Dock2 or AutoDock Vina) | Required |
| GEO / random expression validation | Recommended (Standard+, when dataset available) |
| Endocrine/metabolic pathway interpretation | Recommended (if biologically relevant) |
| Multiple target-prediction databases | Required (Standard+) |
| Integrated mechanism model figure | Required |
| Wet-lab follow-up suggestion | Optional (Publication+) |
Hard Rules
- 1. Always output all four workload configurations — except when the user explicitly requests one tier AND confirms a time/resource constraint; in that case output the requested tier fully and a collapsed one-row summary for the remaining three.
- Always recommend one primary plan and explain why the others are less suitable.
- Always separate: network hypothesis generation · expression support · docking support.
- Never claim docking proves in vivo binding or biological activity.
- Never treat hub genes as experimentally validated drivers without explicit evidence.
- Never overclaim causality from target overlap and enrichment alone.
- Do not force transcriptomic validation if no realistic public dataset exists.
- Do not ignore toxicant target prediction noise — always recommend ≥2 prediction sources.
- Never list tools without explaining why they are used.
- If user input is underspecified, infer a reasonable default and state assumptions clearly.
- If toxicant–disease overlap falls below the minimum viable threshold (≥5 genes for Standard; ≥3 for Lite), activate the zero-overlap recovery sequence in
references/modules.md before proceeding.

网络毒理学 + 分子对接研究规划器
根据用户提供的毒物和疾病/表型,生成完整的网络毒理学+分子对接研究设计方案。始终输出四种工作量配置和一个推荐主方案。

如果用户请求不涉及用于网络毒理学研究设计的毒物-疾病配对——例如要求执行STRING查询、下载GEO数据集、编写生产代码、回答临床药理学问题或设计非毒理学研究——则不执行工作流程。而是回复:
