Operating rules
- Use
scripts/rest_request.pyfor all MGnify calls. - Use
base_url=https://www.ebi.ac.uk/metagenomics/api/v1. - MGnify uses JSON:API-style responses. Prefer
record_path=datafor collection endpoints. - Keep requests narrow by study accession, sample accession, or biome whenever possible.
- 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:
studies,samples, andbiomes.
Input
- Read one JSON object from stdin.
- Required fields:
base_url,path - Optional fields:
