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

Nobody has reviewed this code. TrustedSkills indexes and links skills; it does not audit, run or scan them. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent — read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

About this skill

The opentargets-database skill enables AI agents to query the Open Targets Platform, a comprehensive resource for drug target validation. It allows agents to retrieve evidence-based scores, genetic associations, and clinical trial data for specific gene-disease pairs or therapeutic targets. This capability supports rapid hypothesis generation in biomedical research by providing access to curated datasets from multiple sources.

When to use it

  • Investigating the potential of a novel drug target against a specific disease mechanism.
  • Gathering evidence-based scores to prioritize candidates for wet-lab validation experiments.
  • Retrieving genetic association data (e.g., GWAS hits) linked to therapeutic targets.
  • Analyzing clinical trial status and outcomes for existing drugs targeting a specific pathway.

Key capabilities

  • Querying the Open Targets database via API endpoints.
  • Fetching drug-target interaction scores and confidence metrics.
  • Accessing genetic association data linking variants to diseases.
  • Retrieving information on clinical trials associated with specific targets.
  • Parsing structured JSON responses for downstream analysis.

Example prompts

  • "Query the Open Targets database for all drugs targeting the TP53 gene and return their interaction scores."
  • "Find genetic associations between the BRCA1 gene and breast cancer from the Open Targets platform."
  • "Retrieve clinical trial data for inhibitors of the EGFR pathway using the opentargets-database skill."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent has valid API credentials or network access to reach the Open Targets servers, as direct browser-based queries may be blocked by CORS policies. Results are dependent on the current state of the Open Targets database, so verify data currency if making time-sensitive decisions.
