human-protein-atlas-skill — Codex skill
Queries Human Protein Atlas for gene, tissue, and cell-line data. Use it when an agent needs concise summaries or search downloads.
npx skills add openai/plugins --skill human-protein-atlas-skill -a codexWhat human-protein-atlas-skill does
This skill sends Human Protein Atlas requests through scripts/rest_request.py. It can retrieve gene JSON by ENSG identifier, search records with api/search_download.php, and open tissue or cell-line pages from a gene symbol.
Search and download calls use max_items=10; a single gene lookup usually does not need that limit. The default result is a short Markdown summary. Full JSON or HTML is saved only when requested with save_raw=true.
Install it when you need compact Human Protein Atlas results in Codex. Ask for verbatim JSON when another tool needs machine-readable output.
What it helps with
- retrieve gene JSON from an ENSG identifier
- search records by gene symbol
- download Human Protein Atlas search results
- look up tissue data for a gene
- check cell-line pages by symbol
Example prompts for the agent
- "Get a Human Protein Atlas summary for `ENSG00000141510.json`."
- "Search `TP53` with `api/search_download.php` and return up to `10` records."
- "Show tissue data for `TP53` and save the full HTML to a file."
