Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.
Query live pathogen genomic surveillance data through the GenSpectrum LAPIS API to find which viral lineages are circulating now, how fast they are growing, and what mutations they carry. Use whenever a question depends on the current state of a pathogen population rather than on remembered facts - which SARS-CoV-2 variant is dominant, whether a Pango lineage is still designated or has been withdrawn, what clade or genotype of H5N1 is in a host or region, whether a PCR primer or assay target st…

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/'pathogen-variant-surveillance' ~/.claude/skills/'pathogen-variant-surveillance' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
