Editorial and source context

What this Skill does

Etetoolkit is a source-indexed Agent Skill for data, research & analysis work. Based on the SKILL.md description, it focuses on analyze, manipulate, compare, annotate, and visualize phylogenetic or other hierarchical trees with ete…. Use the linked GitHub file to confirm scope and prerequisites before enabling it.

What the author says

Analyze, manipulate, compare, annotate, and visualize phylogenetic or other hierarchical trees with ETE 4. Use for Newick/Nexus tree I/O, topology edits and pattern matching, Robinson-Foulds comparisons, gene-tree evolutionary events and reconciliation, NCBI/GTDB taxonomy, SmartView exploration, and publication rendering. Do not use it to infer trees from raw sequences; align sequences and infer a tree first.

Compatibility and requirements

• Use an agent runtime that supports Agent Skills and the linked SKILL.md format.
• Confirm the source repository's tools, SDKs, and platform prerequisites for ui and frontend work.

How to install or import it

• Open the linked GitHub SKILL.md and review its scope and setup instructions.
• Install or import the skill using the agent runtime's documented workflow.
• Run a small, non-sensitive test and verify the output before broader use.

Permissions and risks

• Review every command, file path, network request, dependency, and credential scope before enabling it.
• GitHub stars indicate popularity, not safety or correctness; validate the source and test with non-sensitive data.

Example workflows

• Ask an AI agent to apply Etetoolkit to ui and frontend work described in the source record.
• Have the agent state assumptions, required tools, and expected output before using this data, research & analysis skill.
• Compare the result with the linked GitHub SKILL.md and verify it against your project requirements.
