Skill instructions
Operating rules - Use scripts/ncbipmc.py for all PMC Open Access calls in this package. - This skill is intentionally narrow: it currently covers the PMC Open Access service rather than the full PMC API surface. - Pass endpoint-specific query parameters under params, typically id for a PMCID or DOI-style lookup supported by the OA service. - 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 output by default. - Return raw XML only if the user explicitly asks for machine-readable output. - Prefer targeted endpoint calls instead of broad unfiltered dumps. - If the user needs the full raw response, set saveraw=true and report the saved file path. Input - Read one JSON object from stdin. - Optional fields: params, recordpath, maxitems, maxdepth, timeoutsec, saveraw, rawoutputpath - Common PMC Open Access pa
