Molfeat — Small-molecule featurization

When to use

Use this skill to turn SMILES or RDKit molecules into fingerprints, descriptors, pharmacophores, or pretrained embeddings for molecular machine learning and similarity search. Compare representations on the same molecular split and assay endpoint.

This skill targets Molfeat 1.0.0. The previous 0.11 runtime guidance is obsolete: 1.x supports modern Python and removes DGL/DGLLife, legacy Graphormer, and protein adapters. Historical model-store cards can still name removed adapters. The tagged 1.0 migration guide and source take precedence over older pages still served at the documentation's stable URL.

Installation

Create an isolated environment. Core examples were executed on Python 3.13.3/macOS Apple Silicon with Molfeat 1.0.0, datamol 0.13.0, RDKit 2026.03.6, and PyTorch 2.14.1.
