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

Retrieves NCBI BioProject metadata — title, description, organism, submitter and release dates — for a batch of BioProject accessions, using the official NCBI E-utilities API rather than scraping the BioProject web pages. Supports keyword filtering over titles and descriptions, CSV/JSON export, and requires a contact email as the NCBI usage policy mandates. This skill should be used when looking up what a BioProject or PRJNA/PRD accession contains, retrieving sequencing project descriptions, or…

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/'bioproject-search' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'bioproject-search' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named bioproject-search 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 "$d" checkout --quiet '42cf1a9c2381b25047dae98ca944ee7b52781ed8' -- 'skills/bioproject-search' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/bioproject-search' ~/.agents/skills/'bioproject-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/'bioproject-search' ~/.claude/skills/'bioproject-search' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
