stitch-query
Query the STITCH chemical-protein interaction database. Use whenever the user asks about chemical-protein interactions, drug-target binding, compound action modes, or wants to look up any entity (chemical name, STITCH CID, STRING protein ID) in STITCH.
npx skills add BioTender-max/awesome-bio-agent-skills --skill stitch --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.
# STITCH Query Skill Search STITCH for chemical–protein interactions via REST API. Auto-detects input type: | Input Pattern | Detected As | Example | |---|---|---| | `CIDm00002244` / `CIDs00002244` | STITCH chemical ID | direct lookup | | `9606.ENSP00000352121` | STRING protein ID | direct lookup | | anything else | free text | resolved via `/resolve` first | ## API | Function | Input | Returns | |---|---|---| | `resolve(name, species)` | chemical / protein name | `list[dict]` with stringId, preferredName | | `resolve_batch(names, species)` | list of names | `list[dict]` (via `/resolveList`) | | `get_interactors(id, species, limit, required_score)` | single ID | `list[dict]` with partner IDs + scores | | `get_actions(id, species, limit, required_score)` | single ID | `list[dict]` with mode (activation/inhibition/binding…) | | `get_interactions(ids, species, required_score)` | list of IDs | `list[dict]` pairwise interactions among inputs | | `search(entity, species, limit, required_score)` | single entity (any type) | `dict` with resolved_id, interactors, actions | | `search_batch(entities, species, limit, required_score)` | list or comma-separated string | `dict[str, dict]` | | `su

What does the stitch-query skill do?
Query the STITCH chemical-protein interaction database. Use whenever the user asks about chemical-protein interactions, drug-target binding, compound action modes, or wants to look up any entity (chemical name, STITCH CID, STRING protein ID) in STITCH.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add BioTender-max/awesome-bio-agent-skills --skill stitch --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.
