Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Search bioRxiv preprints through the official bioRxiv API and locally filter titles, abstracts, and authors for keyword queries. Use when you need recent biology preprints, bioRxiv-native metadata, date-range scans, DOI lookups, or author shortlists that may not yet appear in peer-reviewed literature indexes.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'biorxiv-search' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'biorxiv-search' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named biorxiv-search already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/BioTender-max/awesome-bio-agent-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '8cbdd18837aa6296c4e77616a03b323bd69b57b1' -- 'skills/omics/biorxiv-search' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/omics/biorxiv-search' ~/.agents/skills/'biorxiv-search' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'biorxiv-search' ~/.claude/skills/'biorxiv-search' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
