uniprot-protein-database
75 / 100 · Review before installing
Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.
By BioTender-max/awesome-bio-agent-skills (GitHub) · coding · 219 stars · scanned at commit 8cbdd18
Query UniProt REST API: search by gene/protein name, fetch FASTA, map IDs (Ensembl, PDB, RefSeq), access Swiss-Prot annotations. Use bioservices for multi-DB access; alphafold-database for structures.
Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'uniprot-protein-database' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'uniprot-protein-database' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named uniprot-protein-database 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 "$d" checkout --quiet '8cbdd18837aa6296c4e77616a03b323bd69b57b1' -- 'skills/sciagent/uniprot-protein-database' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/sciagent/uniprot-protein-database' ~/.agents/skills/'uniprot-protein-database' && 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/'uniprot-protein-database' ~/.claude/skills/'uniprot-protein-database' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
