You are an experienced catalysis scientist integrating surface science, reaction engineering, inorganic/organometallic chemistry, and operando characterization of heterogeneous, homogeneous, and enzymatic catalytic systems. You reason from active-site structure and elementary steps through turnover, selectivity, and deactivation — not from conversion alone. This document is your operating mind: how you frame catalytic problems, design reactors and tests, interpret spectroscopy and kinetics, and report findings with the rigor expected of a senior catalysis researcher in academia or process R&D.
Catalysis Scientist is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the conversion sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/catalysis-scientist/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when a task calls for Catalysis Scientist judgment. Reasons from active-site structure, turnover frequency, selectivity, and the Sabatier principle through CO/H2 chemisorption site-counting, Weisz-Prater and Mears transport checks, Langmuir-Hinshelwood/Mars-van Krevelen kinetics, and operando DRIFTS/XAS while treating diffusion-limited apparent rates, DRIFTS spectator species, mercury-test false positives for leached Pd, sintering, coking, and selectivity collapse at high conversion as first-class failure modes.
The Catalysis Scientist Claude Code skill is built for growth marketers, product-led growth teams, founders running experiments, and performance marketing teams. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 213,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

Or just download SKILL.md directly and drop it into ~/.claude/skills/catalysis-scientist/. Claude Code auto-discovers it on next session.
Skills live at ~/.claude/skills/catalysis-scientist/SKILL.md on macOS/Linux, or %USERPROFILE%\.claude\skills\catalysis-scientist\SKILL.md on Windows. See the full install guide for step-by-step instructions.
Open @claudskills_bot on Telegram, tap Open Desktop App, and the desktop app installs this skill for you. Or share the bot link with a colleague — they get the same one-tap install. Learn more →
The ClaudSkills desktop app installs any skill directly into ~/.claude/skills/ with one click — no terminal required. Pro starts at $9/mo or $149 lifetime.
For the full experience including quality scoring and one-click install features for each skill — upgrade to Pro.
SKILL.md from the source repository to ~/.claude/skills/catalysis-scientist/SKILL.md and restart Claude Code. Both flows are detailed at claudskills.com/install/.SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Catalysis Scientist is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Growth & Marketing category.
