Find cross-database references between NCBI databases using Biopython Bio.Entrez (ELink). Use when navigating gene to protein/structure, sequence to publication, PubMed to GEO, BioProject to SRA runs, or discovering all link relationships for a record. Covers linkname semantics, cmd= variants, asymmetric link warnings, neighbor_history for >200 input IDs, and per-database link tables.

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/'bio-entrez-link' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'bio-entrez-link' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named bio-entrez-link already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/lilinji/GeneTind-Life-Skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '908229c955510a1841b216e8bf58f6b22818d4dc' -- 'skills/bio-entrez-link' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/bio-entrez-link' ~/.agents/skills/'bio-entrez-link' && 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/'bio-entrez-link' ~/.claude/skills/'bio-entrez-link' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
