    Peaked at #10 in the weekly ranking the week of Dec 7, its best in the past year.

    Use Cases & Benefits

    • Provides a unified platform for training and using biomolecular foundation models for protein design, folding, and inverse folding.
    • Integrates multiple state-of-the-art models with shared infrastructure, enabling seamless workflows and consistent biomolecular structure processing.
    • Use for designing novel protein structures under complex constraints using the RFdiffusion3 generative model.
    • Use for predicting protein and protein-DNA complex structures with the RosettaFold3 neural network.
    • Use for designing diverse protein sequences for fixed backbones using lightweight inverse-folding models like ProteinMPNN and LigandMPNN.

    From the README

    Foundry provides tooling and infrastructure for using and training all classes of models for protein design, including design (RFD3), inverse folding (ProteinMPNN) and protein folding (RF3).

    All models within Foundry rely on AtomWorks - a unified framework for manipulating and processing biomolecular structures - for both training and inference.

    Downloading weights Models can be downloaded to a target folder with:

    where checkpoint-dir will be ~/.foundry/checkpoints by default. Foundry always searches ~/.foundry/checkpoints plus any colon-separated entries in $FOUNDRY_CHECKPOINT_DIRS during inference or subsequent commands to find checkpoints. base-models installs the latest RFD3, RF3 and MPNN variants - you can also download all of the models supported (including multiple checkpoints of RF3) with all, or by listing the models sequentially (e.g. foundry install rfd3 rf3 ...). To list the registry of available checkpoints:

    To check what you already have downloaded (searches ~/.foundry/checkpoints plus $FOUNDRY_CHECKPOINT_DIRS if set):

    See examples/all.ipynb for how to run each model and design proteins end-to-end in a notebook.
