Installation

Biology Skills is vendor-neutral. Each directory under skills/ follows the Agent Skills layout and can be used independently.

Clone

git clone https://github.com/biologyskills/biology-skills.git
cd biology-skills

For general biological work, use:

skills/biology-core/

For genomics, use both:

skills/biology-core/
skills/genomics/

Your AI client determines where Agent Skills are installed or exposed. Follow the current installation method for that client rather than using vendor-specific copies maintained here.

Reproducible use

For research, regulated work, or other reproducible workflows, pin a tagged Biology Skills release rather than depending on the moving main branch.

Systems without Agent Skills

Generate portable Markdown bundles from the canonical files:

python scripts/export.py

Output is written to build/, including a compact biology-essentials.md bundle and short, standard, and complete topic views.
