AD lobster-use
Runs bioinformatics analysis with Lobster AI -- single-cell RNA-seq, bulk RNA-seq, genomics (VCF/GWAS), proteomics (mass spec/affinity), metabolomics (LC-MS/GC-MS/NMR), machine learning (feature selection, survival analysis), drug discovery, literature search, dataset discovery, and visualization. Use when working with biological data, omics analysis, or bioinformatics tasks. Covers: H5AD, CSV, VCF, PLINK, 10X, mzML formats, GEO/SRA/PRIDE/MetaboLights accessions. TRIGGER PHRASES: "analyze cells", "search PubMed", "download GEO", "run QC", "cluster", "find markers", "differential expression", "UMAP", "volcano plot", "single-cell", "RNA-seq", "VCF", "GWAS", "proteomics", "mass spec", "metabolomics", "MetaboLights", "LC-MS", "metabolite", "feature selection", "survival analysis", "biomarker", "bioinformatics", "drug discovery", "pharmacogenomics", "variant annotation" ASSUMES: Lobster is installed and configured. For setup issues, tell user to run `lobster config-test` and fix any errors before proceeding.
As a process D 49/100 · Unfinished process — weak spots: result and completion, when it triggers, failures and branches
How to improve
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Process rating: all ten parameters 49/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 40Consistency. Frontmatter name (lobster-use) differs from the folder (lobsterbio-use)
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (web, python) that frontmatter does not declare
- 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
- 100Steps. 18 steps
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1723 tokens
- 100Running it twice. No mutating operations
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
