string-skill

Operating rules

• Use scripts/rest_request.py for all STRING API calls.
• Use base_url=https://string-db.org/api/json.
• Use method=POST with form_body for STRING endpoints.
• Include caller_identity in form_body; keep it stable within a session when possible.
• The script accepts max_items; for network and interaction_partners, start with API limit=10 and max_items=10.
• For enrichment, summarize the top 5 to 10 rows unless the user asks for more.
• Re-run requests in long conversations instead of relying on prior tool output.
• Treat displayed ... in tool previews as UI truncation, not literal request content.

Execution behavior

• Return concise markdown summaries from the script JSON by default.
• Return the script JSON verbatim only if the user explicitly asks for machine-readable output.
• Prefer these paths: network, interaction_partners, and enrichment.
• For long identifier lists, keep the request small and paged; if full results are needed, use save_raw=true.

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 STRING patterns:
  • {"base_url":"https://string-db.org/api/json","path":"network","method":"POST","form_body":{"identifiers":"TP53","species":9606,"caller_identity":"chatgpt-skill","limit":10},"max_items":10}
  • {"base_url":"https://string-db.org/api/json","path":"interaction_partners","method":"POST","form_body":{"identifier":"TP53","species":9606,"caller_identity":"chatgpt-skill","limit":10},"max_items":10}

Output

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

Execution

echo '{"base_url":"https://string-db.org/api/json","path":"network","method":"POST","form_body":{"identifiers":"TP53","species":9606,"caller_identity":"chatgpt-skill","limit":10},"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.
