quickgo-api

quickgo-api is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from wentorai/research-plugins. It costs 16 tokens per session (1,452 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A search interface for Gene Ontology, a shared vocabulary for describing what genes and proteins do, where they work, and which biological processes they affect.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find GO terms, inspect their related terms, and retrieve functional annotations for proteins or biological processes.
Why use it?
It removes the need to manually browse large annotation databases when investigating gene functions or interpreting groups of genes.

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

quickgo-api scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 6d 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.

QuickGO API

Overview

QuickGO is the EBI's fast browser and API for Gene Ontology (GO) annotations — the standard framework for describing gene/protein functions across all organisms. It provides access to 800M+ GO annotations covering biological processes, molecular functions, and cellular components. Essential for functional genomics, pathway analysis, and gene set enrichment. Free, no authentication.

quickgo-api is a skill published in the GitHub repository wentorai/research-plugins (291 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 1,452 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
