Skill instructions
Operating rules - Use scripts/restrequest.py for all ENCODE API calls. - Use baseurl=https://www.encodeproject.org. - Object lookups usually do not need maxitems; portal-style search endpoints are better with limit=10 and maxitems=10. - Send Accept: application/json in headers and add format=json in params when needed. - Keep request volume modest and avoid large unfiltered searches. - Re-run requests in long conversations instead of relying on older tool output. - Treat displayed ... in tool previews as UI truncation, not literal request content. Execution behavior - Return concise markdown summaries from the script JSON by default. - Prefer accession paths such as biosamples/<accession/ and search paths such as search/. - If the user needs the full payload, set saveraw=true and report the saved file path. Input - Read one JSON object from stdin. - Required fields: baseurl, path - Optional fields: method, params, headers, jsonbody, formbody, recordpath, responseformat, maxitems, maxde
