## Why Included

Claude Science (beta, June 30) packages 60+ domain skills, a coordinator/specialist/reviewer agent stack, and HPC/Modal compute into a research workbench with reproducible, auditable outputs.

## Source Summary

**The gist** **Claude Science** launched in beta **June 30, 2026** for macOS and Linux on Pro plans and up: a research workbench with **60+ curated skills and connectors** (genomics, proteomics, cheminformatics), native rendering of protein structures and genome tracks, and compute scaling from one GPU to hundreds via HPC clusters or **Modal**. Every output carries its **code, environment, and message history** for reproduction.

## Practical Implication

**Why it matters** The architecture is a working reference for anyone building agent products: a generalist coordinator, domain specialists, and a **reviewer agent** that checks citations and calculations, with skills as the packaging for domain expertise. An **AI for Science grant** gives up to 50 projects **$30,000 in credits** each — applications close **July 15**.

**Watch out** It is a **beta** aimed at computational science, not a general agent platform. Team and Enterprise need admin enablement, and the privacy story depends on pointing it at your own infrastructure — sensitive data stays wherever you already keep it.

## Context Map

- Layer: tools
- Domains: research, data
- Topics: multi-agent, skills

## Uncertainty

- It is a **beta** aimed at computational science, not a general agent platform. Team and Enterprise need admin enablement, and the privacy story depends on pointing it at your own infrastructure — sensitive data stays wherever you already keep it.
