DrugRepoBank-query
Query the DrugRepoBank drug repurposing evidence database. Use whenever the user asks about repurposing candidates, drug–disease–target repurposing evidence, or wants to look up any entity (drug name, DrugBank ID, ChEMBL ID, PubChem CID, TTD target ID, UniProt ID, disease name) in DrugRepoBank.

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.
# DrugRepoBank Query Skill Search four linked tables (Drug, Target, DrugTargetInteraction, Literature) for repurposing evidence. Auto-detects entity type by prefix: | Input Pattern | Detected As | Example | |---|---|---| | `DB00945` | DrugBank ID | exact on `DrugBank_ID` / `DrugID` | | `T47101` | TTD Target ID | exact on `TargetID` | | `FGFR1_HUMAN` | UniProt ID | exact on `UniprotID` | | `CHEMBL2103749` | ChEMBL ID | exact on `ChEMBL ID` in Drug table | | `16129704` (digits) | PubChem CID | exact on `PubChem_Compound_ID` / `PubChemID` | | anything else | free text | substring on drug Name, TargetName, Disease, NewDisease | ## API | Function | Input | Returns | |---|---|---| | `load_all()` | — | `dict` with keys `drug`, `dti`, `lit`, `target` (lists of row-dicts) | | `search(tables, entity)` | tables dict + single entity string | `dict` with keys `entity`, `entity_type`, `drug`, `target`, `dti`, `literature` | | `search_batch(tables, entities)` | tables dict + list of entity strings | `dict[str, search_result]` | | `summarize(result)` | single `search()` result | compact one-line LLM-readable text | | `to_json(result)` | single `search()` result | JSON string (trimmed heavy fields)

What does the DrugRepoBank-query skill do?
Query the DrugRepoBank drug repurposing evidence database. Use whenever the user asks about repurposing candidates, drug–disease–target repurposing evidence, or wants to look up any entity (drug name, DrugBank ID, ChEMBL ID, PubChem CID, TTD target ID, UniProt ID, disease name) in DrugRepoBank.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add BioTender-max/awesome-bio-agent-skills --skill drugrepobank --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 BioTender-max/awesome-bio-agent-skills, a repository with 135 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.
