Individual skill
diffdock
Predict small-molecule binding poses with DiffDock-L (Corso et al. 2023/2024, github.com/gcorso/DiffDock) — blind diffusion docking that places a ligand into a protein pocket without a predefined search box and ranks the samples with a learned confidence model. Reach for this skill to dock a SMILES or SDF against a PDB, to generate ranked 3D poses for a small fragment library, or to get a starting pose for downstream rescoring. DiffDock predicts geometry, not affinity.

# DiffDock-L
DiffDock-L is a blind pose predictor: given a protein structure and a ligand,
it samples ligand placements over the whole surface with a diffusion model and
ranks them with a separately trained confidence head. The confidence score
correlates with pose correctness, not with binding free energy — DiffDock does
not predict whether or how tightly the ligand binds, so for hit triage you
still pair it with a scorer (GNINA, MM-GBSA) or with `boltz`'s affinity head.
For protein–protein and nucleic-acid co-folding, route to `boltz` or `chai1`.
Code and weights are MIT (github.com/gcorso/DiffDock).
