When to Use

• Use this skill when you need access ensembl rest api for vertebrate genomic data; use when you need gene/id lookups, sequence retrieval, variant effect prediction (vep), or homology/assembly coordinate mapping in a reproducible workflow.
• Use this skill when a evidence insight task needs a packaged method instead of ad-hoc freeform output.
• Use this skill when the user expects a concrete deliverable, validation step, or file-based result.
• Use this skill when scripts/query_ensembl.py is the most direct path to complete the request.
• Use this skill when you need the ensembl-database package behavior rather than a generic answer.
