Skill v1.0.0

version: "1.0.0" name: ipd-skill description: Submit compact IPD REST requests for HLA allele and cell-level metadata using the public IPD query API. Use when a user wants concise IPD summaries; save raw JSON or text only on request.

Operating rules

• Use scripts/rest_request.py for all IPD calls.
• Use base_url=https://www.ebi.ac.uk/cgi-bin/ipd/api.
• The most stable public routes are allele and cell.
• For HLA allele browsing, pass project=HLA and keep limit modest.
• 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 or text only if the user explicitly asks for machine-readable output.
• Prefer these paths: allele, cell, and allele/download.

Input

• Read one JSON object from stdin.
• Required fields: base_url, path
• Optional fields: method, params, headers, json_body, form_body, record_path, response_format, max_items, max_depth, timeout_sec, save_raw, raw_output_path
• Common IPD patterns:
• {"base_url":"https://www.ebi.ac.uk/cgi-bin/ipd/api","path":"allele","params":{"project":"HLA","limit":10},"record_path":"data","max_items":10}
• {"base_url":"https://www.ebi.ac.uk/cgi-bin/ipd/api","path":"allele","params":{"project":"HLA","query":"contains(name,\"A*01\")","limit":10},"record_path":"data","max_items":10}
• {"base_url":"https://www.ebi.ac.uk/cgi-bin/ipd/api","path":"cell","params":{"limit":10},"record_path":"data","max_items":10}

Output

• Success returns ok, source, path, method, status_code, warnings, and either compact records, a compact summary, or text_head.
• Use raw_output_path when save_raw=true.
• Failure returns ok=false with error.code and error.message.

Execution

echo '{"base_url":"https://www.ebi.ac.uk/cgi-bin/ipd/api","path":"allele","params":{"project":"HLA","limit":10},"record_path":"data","max_items":10}' | python scripts/rest_request.py

References

• No additional runtime references are required; keep the import package limited to this file and scripts/rest_request.py.
