antechamber

A command-line tool in AmberTools for preparing small molecules or non-standard residues within GAFF/AMBER-compatible chemical space for molecular mechanics simulations, by automating atom/bond typing, charge generation or import, and force-field–compatible input generation. USE WHEN you are working in AMBER, dealing with molecules not covered by standard force fields, and already have a structure that can be processed (e.g., pdb, mol2, ac, gout). Typical use cases include parameterizing ligands or modified residues (assigning atom/bond types, generating or reading partial charges), converting structures from upstream tools into mol2/prepi formats, and preparing topology-ready inputs for downstream tools such as LEaP. DO NOT USE for standard residues, metal complexes, inorganic systems, or when no valid molecular structure is available (e.g., only SMILES).
