ai-gene-review: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/module-curation/SKILL.md

module-curation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ai4curation/ai-gene-review. It costs 61 tokens per session (937 once invoked), scanned A, original, BSD-3-Clause.

Instructions for curating biological modules in ai-gene-review, where a module is a reusable group of genes or proteins involved in a biological process. They cover YAML records, pathway boundaries, molecular functions, UniProt and GOA evidence, research sources, validation, and rendering.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when creating, reviewing, repairing, validating, or documenting module files under modules/ and related pathway or gene-review pages.
Why use it?
They help keep biological modules scientifically defensible instead of turning them into flat, species-specific lists. They also define when a gene or single reaction should be folded into a broader module.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

module-curation scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Module Curation

Use this skill for modules/*.yaml work and for project pages that describe module/pathway curation. The goal is a reusable, defensible biological module, not a flat list of annotations or a species-specific note disguised as a module.

Workflow

  1. Read the local context before editing:
    • modules/README.md
    • the target modules/<module>.yaml
    • any adjacent <module>-deep-research-*.md
    • related projects/** batch page(s), if the task is pathway-batch work
    • relevant gene reviews and UniProt/GOA files for concrete members
  2. Decide the module boundary before filling YAML:
    • What biological process, complex, reaction chain, or reusable motif is the module?
    • Which genes/proteins are core members, and which are activation context, substrate supply, regulation, upstream/downstream biology, or separate modules?
    • Is this a concrete species/pathway instance or an abstract reusable motif?
    • Does the boundary have at least two substantive parts/roles/steps? If it collapses to one gene, one enzyme, or one reaction, do not create or retain a standalone ModuleReview; record it as pathway/gene curation and fold it into a broader module later.
  3. Model the structure:
    • Put module-level process/complex/context terms on module.concepts and module.context.
    • Put molecular functions on leaf annotons[].function, not on a biological-process module just because the member protein has that MF.
    • Use parts for required steps or roles, variant_sets for alternatives, and connections for ordered/causal links.
  4. Ground claims with checkable provenance:
    • Use exact UniProt, GO, Rhea, ChEBI, PANTHER PTHR, and PAINT PTN ids.
    • Never guess PTNs or identifiers. Resolve PTNs from local PANTHER/PAINT data or GOA WITH/FROM evidence.
    • Use representative members to orient family-level claims without turning a reusable module into a species-specific member list.
  5. Validate and render before committing:
    • uv run linkml-validate -s src/ai_gene_review/schema/gene_review.yaml -C ModuleReview modules/<module>.yaml
    • uv run python -m ai_gene_review.validation.module_validator modules/<module>.yaml
    • just render-module modules/<module>.yaml
    • render any touched project page with uv run ai-gene-review render-projects ...
    • run git diff --check

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
