NetworkX Graph Analysis

A skill that guides Claude in building, analyzing, and visualizing networks and graphs with Python's NetworkX.

Data & AnalyticsIntermediate★ 33,030⑂ 3,248AI score 9/10Last updated: Aug 9, 2026

What it does

  • Supplies patterns for creating Graph/DiGraph/MultiGraph structures and managing node/edge attributes.
  • Covers core algorithms: shortest paths, centrality (degree, betweenness, closeness, PageRank), clustering, community detection, flows, spanning trees.
  • Includes synthetic network generators (Erdős–Rényi, Barabási–Albert, Watts–Strogatz, lattices, trees) and I/O for GraphML, GML, JSON, edge lists, Pandas, NumPy/SciPy.
  • Handles visualization: layout algorithms, styling by degree/centrality, publication-quality exports, plus Plotly/PyVis interactive options.
  • Flags APIs removed in NetworkX 3.x (nx.info, write_gpickle, random_tree) and explains accelerated backends like nx-cugraph and nx-parallel.

Who it's for

  • Researchers and data analysts working with social, citation, biological, or knowledge graphs.
  • Engineers modeling transportation, logistics, or dependency graphs.
  • NetworkX users hitting errors from outdated tutorial code.

Example uses

  1. Load an edge-list CSV with Pandas, compute betweenness centrality, and export the top nodes to CSV.
  2. Generate a seeded Barabási–Albert scale-free network and compare average clustering with path length.
  3. Detect communities, color nodes by group, and save a spring-layout figure as 300dpi PNG plus vector PDF.

Try it now, no install

Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.

Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills/HEAD/skills/networkx/SKILL.md

What I want: (describe your task here)

If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.

↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.

Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
  1. Download the ZIP with the button below.
  2. In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
  3. Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
↓ Download ZIP
Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on AI Skill Mart.
Copy the skills/networkx folder from the GitHub repo K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills into my ~/.claude/skills/networkx/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r scientific-agent-skills/skills/networkx ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal and go to your working directory.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills.git
  3. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill: cp -r scientific-agent-skills/skills/networkx ~/.claude/skills/
  5. On Python 3.11+, install dependencies: pip install networkx[default] matplotlib pandas
  6. Restart Claude Code and try a prompt like "Analyze centrality for the network in this edge list."
