  • [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill retrieves biological data from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).
  • Evidence: The NCBITaxa class documented in SKILL.md and references/api_reference.md automatically downloads the NCBI taxonomy database (~300MB) to a local cache folder (~/.etetoolkit/taxa.sqlite). This is a trusted and well-known service in the scientific community.
  • [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: Provides utility scripts designed for command-line execution for tree processing tasks.
  • Evidence: Usage examples in SKILL.md demonstrate how to use scripts/tree_operations.py and scripts/quick_visualize.py for tasks such as format conversion, tree rooting, and rendering visualizations.
  • [SAFE]: System-level installation commands for GUI dependencies are provided as standard administrative procedures.
  • Evidence: SKILL.md includes brew install and sudo apt-get install commands for Qt and PyQt5, which are necessary for the library's rendering capabilities.
