tooluniverse-bioinformatics-resource-discovery

Discover which bioinformatics software tool, biomedical REST API, R/Bioconductor package, CRAN package, or training material exists for a task, before writing analysis code or building a pipeline. Covers ELIXIR bio.tools (30,000+ software tools/databases by keyword, EDAM topic, or EDAM operation), SmartAPI (biomedical API registry, incl. NCATS Translator components), ELIXIR TeSS (bioinformatics training materials/events), Bioconductor (R packages for computational biology), and CRAN (general R packages). Use when someone asks 'is there an existing tool/package for X', 'what software does [analysis]', 'find an API for Y', or 'is there a tutorial on Z'.

W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).

What this means

The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.

Why it was flagged

The workflow searches public bioinformatics registries (bio.tools, SmartAPI, ELIXIR TeSS, Bioconductor, and CRAN) using free-text queries, which allows outsider-submitted tool descriptions, metadata, and package contents to be ingested by the agent.
