esm
Comprehensive toolkit for protein language models including ESM3 (generative multimodal protein design across sequence, structure, and function) and ESM C (efficient protein embeddings and representations). Use this skill when working with protein sequences, structures, or function prediction; designing novel proteins; generating protein embeddings; performing inverse folding; or conducting protein engineering tasks. Supports both local model usage and cloud-based Forge API for scalable inference.

# ESM: Evolutionary Scale Modeling
## Overview
ESM provides state-of-the-art protein language models for understanding, generating, and designing proteins. This skill enables working with two model families: ESM3 for generative protein design across sequence, structure, and function, and ESM C for efficient protein representation learning and embeddings.
## Core Capabilities
### 1. Protein Sequence Generation with ESM3
Generate novel protein sequences with desired properties using multimodal generative modeling.
**When to use:**
- Designing proteins with specific functional properties
