Query cBioPortal via its keyless REST API for cancer genomics across TCGA, GENIE, MSK-IMPACT and hundreds of studies — somatic mutations, copy-number alterations (GISTIC), mRNA/protein expression, structural variants, and patient-level clinical/survival data. Use when asked how often a gene is mutated/amplified/deleted in a tumor type, to profile oncogenes or tumor suppressors across cancers (pan-cancer alteration frequency), to pull patient-level mutations joined to OS/clinical outcomes, or to validate a cancer target from cohort genomics. For germline variant pathogenicity use alterlab-clinvar; for mutational-signature (SBS) decomposition use alterlab-cosmic; for CRISPR/RNAi gene-dependency use alterlab-depmap; for aggregated target-disease evidence use alterlab-opentargets.

Comprehensive toolkit for creating, analyzing, and visualizing complex networks and graphs in Python. Use when working with network/graph data structures, analyzing relationships between entities, computing graph algorithms (shortest paths, centrality, clustering), detecting communities, generating synthetic networks, or visualizing network topologies. Applicable to social networks, biological networks, transportation systems, citation networks, and any domain involving pairwise relationships.
Interact with Zotero reference management libraries using the pyzotero Python client. Retrieve, create, update, and delete items, collections, tags, and attachments via the Zotero Web API v3. Use this skill when working with Zotero libraries programmatically, managing bibliographic references, exporting citations, searching library contents, uploading PDF attachments, or building research automation workflows that integrate with Zotero.

Create, analyze, and visualize complex networks and graphs in Python with NetworkX. Use when working with network/graph data structures, computing graph algorithms (shortest paths, centrality, clustering), detecting communities, generating synthetic networks (random, scale-free, small-world), reading/writing graph file formats, or drawing network topologies. Common applications include social, biological, transportation, and citation networks.
Use NeuroKit2 to build or audit reproducible research workflows for physiological time-series preprocessing, event/interval analysis, multimodal alignment, variability, and complexity. Trigger when code imports neurokit2 or needs its current APIs, schemas, and method-aware validation—not for diagnosis or device validation.
