Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: rest.uniprot.org.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned drshailesh88/integrated_content_os at 9e61937ad2.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill provides access to the UniProt database, a comprehensive resource for protein information. It allows retrieval of data such as protein sequences, functional annotations, taxonomic classifications, and cross-references to other databases. The skill can be used to query specific proteins or explore broader aspects of proteomics research.

When to use it

  • Researching a specific protein: Find detailed information about a particular protein’s function, structure, and interactions.
  • Analyzing gene expression data: Correlate gene expression levels with known protein properties from UniProt.
  • Identifying potential drug targets: Explore proteins involved in disease pathways using UniProt's annotations.
  • Validating experimental results: Cross-reference newly discovered proteins or sequences against the established UniProt database.

Key capabilities

  • Access to UniProt protein sequence data
  • Retrieval of functional annotations for proteins
  • Taxonomic classification information
  • Cross-references to other databases

Example prompts

  • "What is the function of the BRCA1 protein?"
  • "Find all proteins involved in the MAPK signaling pathway."
  • "Give me the sequence of human hemoglobin."

Tips & gotchas

The UniProt database is vast; be specific with your queries to narrow down results. Understanding basic bioinformatics terminology will improve the quality and relevance of the information retrieved.
