Operating rules

Use scripts/ncbi_gene_clinicaltables.py for all Clinical Tables gene searches.
The script accepts max_items; for search pages, start with count=10 and max_items=10.
Use params for endpoint options like df, ef, sf, q, offset, and count.
Prefer ncbi-entrez-skill when the user wants general Entrez Gene records rather than autocomplete/search rows.
Page with offset instead of asking for large pulls.
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.
If the user asks for the full payload, set save_raw=true and report the saved file path instead of pasting large response arrays into chat.

Execution behavior

Return concise markdown summaries from the script JSON by default.
Return the JSON verbatim only if the user explicitly asks for machine-readable output.
Use terms for the primary search text.
Keep count modest and page with offset instead of pulling large result sets at once.
