# Opentrons Integration ## Overview Opentrons is a Python-based lab automation platform for Flex and OT-2 robots. Write Protocol API v2 protocols for liquid handling, control hardware modules (heater-shaker, thermocycler), manage labware, for automated pipetting workflows. ## When to Use This Skill This skill should be used when: - Writing Opentrons Protocol API v2 protocols in Python - Automating liquid handling workflows on Flex or OT-2 robots - Controlling hardware modules (temperature, magnetic, heater-shaker, thermocycler) - Setting up labware configurations and deck layouts - Implementing complex pipetting operations (serial dilutions, plate replication, PCR setup) - Managing tip usage and optimizing protocol efficiency - Working with multi-channel pipettes for 96-well plate operations - Simulating and testing protocols before robot execution ## Core Capabilities ### 1. Protocol Structure and Metadata Every Opentrons protocol follows a standard structure: ```python from opentrons import protocol_api # Metadata metadata = { 'protocolName': 'My Protocol', 'author': 'Name <email@example.com>', 'description': 'Protocol description', 'apiLevel': '2.19' # Use latest available API v

What does the opentrons-integration skill do?
Lab automation platform for Flex/OT-2 robots. Write Protocol API v2 protocols, liquid handling, hardware modules (heater-shaker, thermocycler), labware management, for automated pipetting workflows.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills --skill opentrons-integration --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills, a repository with 2,909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
