Paramus Professional Chemistry OS
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.
Overview
This is a coherent chemistry API skill, but it strongly pushes Paramus API use and may send chemistry inputs to Paramus cloud when local mode is unavailable.
This skill appears purpose-aligned for chemistry and scientific calculations. Before using it, verify you trust Paramus, protect the API token, and use local mode for confidential molecules, formulations, or datasets. If local mode is unavailable, only allow cloud calls for data you are comfortable sending to Paramus.

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
The agent may call Paramus for many chemistry or science questions instead of answering locally.
The skill explicitly forces tool use for a broad class of questions and suppresses direct model answers. This is aligned with a calculation API skill, but users should notice the broad routing behavior.
When the user asks ANY chemistry, molecular, thermodynamics, materials science, or scientific calculation question, you MUST call the Paramus API. Do NOT answer from your own knowledge.
Use this skill when you want Paramus-backed calculations, and tell the agent not to use cloud calls for questions or data you want kept local.
The agent can invoke provider-supported scientific tools through a generic API endpoint using user-provided inputs.
The skill documents a generic JSON-RPC direct_call mechanism for invoking Paramus tools. This is central to the skill’s purpose, but it is a broad remote tool interface.
"params":{"name":"direct_call","arguments":{"toolName":"calculate_molecular_weight","toolArguments":{"smiles":"CCO"}}}For sensitive or high-value work, review which tool is being called and prefer local mode where possible.
Anyone with the token may be able to use the user’s Paramus cloud access according to Paramus account permissions.
Cloud access uses a bearer token. This is expected for an authenticated API integration and the token is declared as the primary credential.
export PARAMUS_AUTH="Authorization: Bearer $PARAMUS_API_TOKEN"
Store the token only as an environment variable or secret, avoid pasting it into chats, and rotate it if exposed.
Proprietary molecules, formulations, or scientific datasets could leave the user’s device when cloud mode is used.
The skill clearly discloses an external provider data flow. Chemical structures, formulations, or datasets may be sensitive, so the consent and local-mode guidance matters.
Cloud mode (cloud1.paramus.ai): Chemical data is sent to Paramus servers for processing. Use only if user consents to external API calls.
Use localhost mode for confidential work, and only allow cloud mode after confirming the data is safe to send to Paramus.
