Submit compact STRING API requests for network, interaction partner, and enrichment endpoints. Use when a user wants concise STRING summaries

🔥🔥🔥✓ VerifiedFreeQuick setup
#git
🧩 One of 7 skills in the openai/plugins package — works on its own, and pairs well with its siblings.

This is the playbook your agent receives when the skill activates — you don't need to read it to use the skill, but it's here to audit before installing.

Operating rules

  • Use scripts/rest_request.py for all STRING API calls.
  • Use base_url=https://string-db.org/api/json.
  • Use method=POST with form_body for STRING endpoints.
  • Include caller_identity in form_body; keep it stable within a session when possible.
  • The script accepts max_items; for network and interaction_partners, start with API limit=10 and max_items=10.
  • For enrichment, summarize the top 5 to 10 rows unless the user asks for more.
  • Re-run requests in long conversations instead of relying on prior tool output.
  • Treat displayed ... in tool previews as UI truncation, not literal request content.

Execution behavior

  • Return concise markdown summaries from the script JSON by default.
  • Return the script JSON verbatim only if the user explicitly asks for machine-readable output.
  • Prefer these paths: network, interaction_partners, and enrichment.
  • For long identifier lists, keep the request small and paged; if full results are needed, use save_raw=true.

Input

  • Read one JSON object from stdin.
  • Required fields: base_url, path
  • Optional fields: method, params, headers, json_body, form_body, record_path, response_format, max_items, max_depth, timeout_sec, save_raw, raw_output_path
  • Common STRING patterns:
    • {"base_url":"https://string-db.org/api/json","path":"network","method":"POST","form_body":{"identifiers":"TP53","species":9606,"caller_identity":"chatgpt-skill","limit":10},"max_items":10}
    • {"base_url":"https://string-db.org/api/json","path":"interaction_partners","method":"POST","form_body":{"identifier":"TP53","species":9606,"caller_identity":"chatgpt-skill","limit":10},"max_items":10}

Output

  • Success returns ok, source, path, method, status_code, warnings, and either compact records or a compact summary.
  • Use raw_output_path when save_raw=true.
  • Failure returns ok=false with error.code and error.message.

Execution

echo '{"base_url":"https://string-db.org/api/json","path":"network","method":"POST","form_body":{"identifiers":"TP53","species":9606,"caller_identity":"chatgpt-skill","limit":10},"max_items":10}' | python scripts/rest_request.py

References

  • No additional runtime references are required; keep the import package limited to this file and scripts/rest_request.py.
