From the SKILL.md

# LabArchives Integration Use LabArchives APIs only from current, official method pages. The public documentation is a shared notebook, not a versioned SDK reference, so verify the specific page immediately before implementing a remote operation. ## Choose the Correct Surface Do not combine these interfaces: - **Legacy ELN API:** notebook trees, entries, attachments, users, searches, exports, and site-license functions. It uses regional `*api.labarchives.com` hosts, `/api/<class>/<method>` paths, XML for many responses, and signed query parameters. - **Inventory API v1:** inventory, item types, orders, storage locations, and vendors. It documents relative `/public/v1/...` paths, JSON schemas, and signed `X-LabArchives-*` request headers. - **Product integrations:** Jupyter, REDCap, Protocols.io, GraphPad Prism, SnapGene, Geneious, and others are product-specific UI or file workflows. They are not evidence of a general LabArchives OAuth 2.0 API. Read [`references/api_reference.md`](references/api_reference.md) before writing API code and [`references/integrations.md`](references/integrations.md) before automating an advertised integration. ## Access and Credentials LabArchives ELN d

About this skill
What does the labarchive-integration skill do?

Securely integrate with the official LabArchives ELN REST-like API and Inventory API v1. Use for regional endpoint selection, signed-request construction, user authorization and UID flows, local LA container validation, and verified LabArchives integration workflows.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills --skill labarchive-integration --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 K-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skills, a repository with 32,619 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.
