Skill instructions

Operating rules - Use scripts/restrequest.py for all CELLxGENE Discover calls. - Use baseurl=https://api.cellxgene.cziscience.com/curation/v1. - Prefer targeted collection detail lookups rather than full archive dumps by default. - The public collections list can be large and may require a higher timeoutsec; collection detail lookups are usually the better first call. - Re-run requests in long conversations instead of relying on older tool output. Execution behavior - Return concise markdown summaries from the script JSON by default. - Return raw JSON only if the user explicitly asks for machine-readable output. - Prefer these paths: collections/<collectionid first, then collections when the user explicitly wants broad archive discovery. Input - Read one JSON object from stdin. - Required fields: baseurl, path - Optional fields: method, params, headers, jsonbody, formbody, recordpath, responseformat, maxitems, maxdepth, timeoutsec, saveraw, rawoutputpath - Common CELLxGENE patterns: -
