dismech: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/ker-evidence-triage/SKILL.md

ker-evidence-triage is a skill for Claude Code from monarch-initiative/dismech. It costs 115 tokens per session (1,438 once invoked), scanned A, original, BSD-3-Clause.

A procedure for checking how much published evidence supports a Key Event Relationship in AOP-Wiki, a database of biological event pathways. It examines evidence and status fields before a relationship is used for curation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess literature support, interpret completion scores and weight-of-evidence fields, and prioritize which relationships deserve deeper research.
Why use it?
A displayed causal link may have few or no references behind it. This check exposes weak or empty records early, before time is spent building on an unsupported claim.

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

ker-evidence-triage 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 7d 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.

KER evidence triage

A KER can be completely uncited. At the time this skill was written (09-03-2026), the AOP-Wiki XML export — the 08-06-2026 snapshot — held 2,369 KERs, of which 738 (31%) carry references and the other 1,631 (69%) carry none. A KER with an empty evidence block still renders as a clean arrow between two named events, and nothing in the console output distinguishes it from a well-supported one.

This is the procedure for finding out which you have. It changes what the rest of the work costs, so run it before committing deep-research effort, not after — it is a prioritization gate, not a post-hoc note.

Reaching the records is the aop-wiki skill's job — read it for the CLI, the date footgun, and the entity shapes. This skill is what you do with a KER once you have one.

The 29.41% rule

completion_score.percent == 29.41 on a KER means the record is an empty stub: endpoints and identifiers, nothing else. This is exact, not a heuristic. In the 08-06-2026 snapshot 1,536 of 2,369 KERs (65%) sit at that value and zero of them carry a single reference. It is also the corpus median, so most of AOP-Wiki's causal edges are assertions with nothing behind them.

One number, read before anything else, tells you whether the KER has content. A stub KER is not disqualified — but it means AOP-Wiki is contributing a hypothesis and no evidence, and every citation will have to be found from scratch. Rank the work accordingly, and say so when you report the plan.

The evidence fields

For each KER you are assessing, read three fields on ker_info and one on its parent AOP:

Field On What it tells you
references KER whether any literature is attached to this edge
weight_of_evidence.free_text KER whether anyone assessed the edge
empirical_support.free_text KER whether experimental support is described
oecd_status AOP whether the pathway was ever externally reviewed

Three traps live here.

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.
