pride-skill — Codex skill: PRIDE project search
Searches PRIDE Archive for proteomics projects and retrieves project-level metadata. Use it to get concise summaries of archive results.
npx skills add openai/plugins --skill pride-skill -a codexWhat pride-skill does
The skill sends requests to PRIDE Archive through scripts/rest_request.py. The script reads JSON from standard input and returns compact records or a summary; raw JSON is available when explicitly requested. Use projects to discover projects or projects/<PXD accession> to retrieve metadata for one project.
A request includes the API base address and path, with optional parameters, headers, and response settings. Search requests can include a keyword and page size. The script can also limit item count and response depth, set a timeout, and save the raw response. Python is required. In a long conversation, the skill runs requests again instead of relying on earlier results.
What it helps with
- find PRIDE projects by keyword
- retrieve metadata for a project by PXD accession
- turn search results into a concise summary
- save the raw API response to a file
Example prompts for the agent
- Search PRIDE Archive for projects about proteomics and summarize the results.
- Retrieve metadata for project PXD001357.
- Run the project request again and save the raw response to a file.
