bioservices
Primary Python tool for 40+ bioinformatics services. Preferred for multi-database workflows: UniProt, KEGG, ChEMBL, PubChem, Reactome, QuickGO. Unified API for queries, ID mapping, pathway analysis. For direct REST control, use individual database skills (uniprot-database, kegg-database).
npx skills add FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills --skill bioservices --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# BioServices ## Overview BioServices is a Python package providing programmatic access to approximately 40 bioinformatics web services and databases. Retrieve biological data, perform cross-database queries, map identifiers, analyze sequences, and integrate multiple biological resources in Python workflows. The package handles both REST and SOAP/WSDL protocols transparently. ## When to Use This Skill This skill should be used when: - Retrieving protein sequences, annotations, or structures from UniProt, PDB, Pfam - Analyzing metabolic pathways and gene functions via KEGG or Reactome - Searching compound databases (ChEBI, ChEMBL, PubChem) for chemical information - Converting identifiers between different biological databases (KEGG↔UniProt, compound IDs) - Running sequence similarity searches (BLAST, MUSCLE alignment) - Querying gene ontology terms (QuickGO, GO annotations) - Accessing protein-protein interaction data (PSICQUIC, IntactComplex) - Mining genomic data (BioMart, ArrayExpress, ENA) - Integrating data from multiple bioinformatics resources in a single workflow ## Core Capabilities ### 1. Protein Analysis Retrieve protein information, sequences, and functional annotations

What does the bioservices skill do?
Primary Python tool for 40+ bioinformatics services. Preferred for multi-database workflows: UniProt, KEGG, ChEMBL, PubChem, Reactome, QuickGO. Unified API for queries, ID mapping, pathway analysis. For direct REST control, use individual database skills (uniprot-database, kegg-database).
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills --skill bioservices --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills, a repository with 2,909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
