ncbi-datasets-skill

Operating rules

• Use scripts/ncbi_datasets.py for all Datasets v2 calls in this package.
• Use explicit REST path values relative to https://api.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/datasets/v2.
• Prefer targeted metadata paths instead of broad unfiltered 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.

Execution behavior

• Return concise markdown summaries from the script output by default.
• Return raw JSON or text 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 save_raw=true and report the saved file path.
