reactome-database

reactome-database is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from LeonChaoX/qinyan-academic-skills. It costs 35 tokens per session (1,793 once invoked), scanned B, a copy of reactome-database, MIT.

A connection to Reactome, a free database that describes biological pathways and molecular reactions. It links genes and proteins to the processes in which they participate.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for pathway-enrichment analysis, gene-expression interpretation, disease-pathway research, molecular-interaction queries, and cross-species comparisons.
Why use it?
It removes the need to manually map large gene or protein lists to pathways and compare the results yourself.

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 B, and why

reactome-database scanned grade B with 2 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/reactome_query.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

Reactome Database

Overview

Reactome is a free, open-source, curated pathway database with 2,825+ human pathways. Query biological pathways, perform overrepresentation and expression analysis, map genes to pathways, explore molecular interactions via REST API and Python client for systems biology research.

When to Use This Skill

This skill should be used when:

  • Performing pathway enrichment analysis on gene or protein lists
  • Analyzing gene expression data to identify relevant biological pathways
  • Querying specific pathway information, reactions, or molecular interactions
  • Mapping genes or proteins to biological pathways and processes
  • Exploring disease-related pathways and mechanisms
  • Visualizing analysis results in the Reactome Pathway Browser
  • Conducting comparative pathway analysis across species

Core Capabilities

Reactome provides two main API services and a Python client library:

1. Content Service - Data Retrieval

Query and retrieve biological pathway data, molecular interactions, and entity information.

Common operations:

  • Retrieve pathway information and hierarchies
  • Query specific entities (proteins, reactions, complexes)
  • Get participating molecules in pathways
  • Access database version and metadata
  • Explore pathway compartments and locations

API Base URL: https://reactome.org/ContentService

2. Analysis Service - Pathway Analysis

Perform computational analysis on gene lists and expression data.

Analysis types:

  • Overrepresentation Analysis: Identify statistically significant pathways from gene/protein lists
  • Expression Data Analysis: Analyze gene expression datasets to find relevant pathways
  • Species Comparison: Compare pathway data across different organisms

API Base URL: https://reactome.org/AnalysisService

3. reactome2py Python Package

Python client library that wraps Reactome API calls for easier programmatic access.

Installation:

uv pip install reactome2py

Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

reactome-database is a skill published in the GitHub repository LeonChaoX/qinyan-academic-skills (873 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 1,793 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (sends data to an external url, makes network calls). It is 94% identical to reactome-database, differing in 3 lines, and is treated as a copy.
