Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a research skill usually looks things up on the internet.

Fetches compound properties and species taxonomy from the official PubChem PUG-REST and NCBI Taxonomy APIs. Retrieves molecular formula, weight, SMILES, InChI, InChIKey, IUPAC name, XLogP, TPSA and CAS numbers for a batch of PubChem CIDs, and full lineage classification (domain through species) for a batch of NCBI Taxonomy IDs. Supports batched queries (100 IDs per request), CSV/JSON export, and requires a contact email as the NCBI usage policy mandates. This skill should be used when looking u…

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-database-fetch' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'bio-database-fetch' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named bio-database-fetch already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/ssinder/bioinformatics-agent-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '42cf1a9c2381b25047dae98ca944ee7b52781ed8' -- 'skills/bio-database-fetch' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/bio-database-fetch' ~/.agents/skills/'bio-database-fetch' && 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-database-fetch' ~/.claude/skills/'bio-database-fetch' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
