Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
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 undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
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.
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

About this skill
tooluniverse-gene-enrichment
What it does
This skill enables AI agents to perform gene enrichment analysis, helping researchers identify biological themes within lists of genes. It processes input data to reveal significant functional categories or pathways associated with specific genetic markers.
When to use it
- Analyzing output from high-throughput sequencing experiments like RNA-seq or microarrays.
- Interpreting results from CRISPR screens to understand gene function and pathway involvement.
- Validating candidate genes identified in genome-wide association studies (GWAS).
- Generating hypotheses about disease mechanisms by connecting gene lists to known biological processes.
Key capabilities
- Performs statistical enrichment analysis on user-provided gene lists.
- Identifies overrepresented biological pathways and functional categories.
- Integrates with the ToolUniverse ecosystem for seamless AI agent workflows.
Example prompts
- "Run a gene enrichment analysis on this list of 500 differentially expressed genes to find top pathways."
- "What biological functions are significantly enriched in my CRISPR screen hit list?"
- "Interpret these GWAS results by performing enrichment analysis on the associated candidate genes."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your input gene list is formatted correctly according to the tool's requirements for optimal statistical accuracy. Results should always be validated against current literature, as biological databases are frequently updated with new findings.
