Flagship platform / FROGENT

Coordinate the full discovery loop through shared scientific context

FROGENT is EasternDawn's full-process multi-agent drug design platform. Four collaborating agents plan, retrieve, generate, evaluate, and refine work through a common project state and a Model Context Protocol (MCP)-connected capability layer.

01 / Abstract

A campaign is one inspectable scientific record

FROGENT turns a high-level goal into a task graph and keeps retrieved evidence, candidate structures, scores, artifacts, failures, and agent handoffs in shared context. Specialized engines can then contribute modality-specific work without losing the scientific question that motivated it.

To our knowledge, the first multi-agent drug design framework that integrates and automates end-to-end discovery workflows for both small-molecule and peptide therapeutics.

Evidence boundary. The priority statement is preserved exactly from the supplied manuscript. Benchmark and case-study results describe computational workflows and do not establish experimental efficacy, safety, affinity, or clinical performance.

02 / Architecture

Four agents, one Global Context, and a connected capability surface

The architecture separates responsibility while preserving a common evidence trail. Each agent can call models, databases, tools, and evaluators through a shared MCP interface.

01

Orchestrate Agent

Plans the task graph, delegates work, tracks state, and controls feedback loops.

02

Retrieve Agent

Gathers literature, database records, structures, and project evidence while preserving provenance.

03 / End-to-end workflow

Every stage returns artifacts and diagnostics to the next decision

  1. 01

    Define

    Record the scientific goal, modality, constraints, thresholds, and human decision points.

  2. 02

    Retrieve

    Collect task-relevant evidence and retain the source attached to each claim or artifact.

  3. 03

    Design

    Generate candidates through modality-specific engines under explicit task constraints.

  4. 04

    Evaluate

    Run quantitative evaluators, preserve component scores, and expose failure diagnostics.

  5. 05

    Refine

    Return evidence to the shared context so the next proposal responds to the current record.

  6. 06

    Deliver

    Assemble ranked candidates, synthesis plans, provenance, limitations, and a consolidated report.

05 / Evaluation and limits

Architecture, task benchmarks, and case studies remain separate evidence layers

The supplied manuscript reports comparisons with six progressively capable baselines across eight benchmark families and documents three end-to-end computational design case studies. Task definitions and scoring scales remain specific to each evaluation.

Limitations. Automated coordination can improve coverage and traceability while still inheriting model error, database gaps, evaluator approximation, and task-definition bias. Consequential decisions require expert review and prospective experimental validation.
