Description
instrument-data-to-allotrope is a skill from Anthropic's knowledge-work plugins, listed on skills.sh, and the skill's page describes it as an example. It converts laboratory instrument output files, in PDF, CSV, Excel or text, into the Allotrope Simple Model (ASM) JSON format or into a flattened two-dimensional CSV. The result is meant for upload to a laboratory information system, for a data lake, or for handoff to data engineering teams. The skill shows how a skill can automate schema transformations, parse instrument outputs and generate production code. The page notes how a team would adapt it: by changing the reference files to hold its own schemas or ontology mappings, by connecting an MCP server to the systems that define those schemas, and by extending the scripts for proprietary instrument formats. It suits laboratory data teams who need instrument results in a standard format and want a starting point to adapt to their own standards.…
