Excellent bioinformatics skill for NCBI Gene database queries. The description clearly covers capabilities (search, retrieval, batch lookups, functional analysis) enabling straightforward CLI invocation. Task knowledge is comprehensive with detailed workflows, three well-documented scripts, error handling guidance, and rate limiting information. Structure is logical with a clean overview, organized workflows, script examples, and appropriate delegation to reference files for API details. Novelty is good - querying biological databases with proper rate limiting, authentication, and batch processing would consume significant tokens for a CLI agent and benefit from pre-built utilities. Minor improvement areas: could include more specific output schema examples and edge case handling patterns. Overall, this is a well-designed, practical skill that meaningfully reduces complexity for gene annotation tasks.
