tooluniverse-vaccine-design

Computational vaccine candidate design: peptide/subunit vaccines via MHC-I/MHC-II epitope prediction (IEDB), population HLA coverage optimization, B-cell epitope identification, and cross-strain conservation analysis. Use for vaccine epitope prediction, HLA allele coverage, multi-epitope construct design, and immunogenicity assessment. Combines predicted MHC binding with experimentally validated IEDB epitopes for higher-confidence designs.

Quality

Content

82%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A well-organized, highly actionable pipeline skill with executable examples and clear phase sequencing. The main gap is the absence of an explicit validation feedback loop for batch prediction steps.

Suggestions

Add an explicit validate→fix→retry checkpoint in Phase 1/Phase 3 (e.g., re-run binding prediction or coverage calc if the selected epitope set falls below the coverage threshold) to strengthen workflow_clarity.

Tighten the Reasoning Strategy paragraph by trimming explanatory sentences that restate domain knowledge Claude already has, improving token efficiency.

Consider moving the detailed HLA supertype allele lists and IC50 interpretation tables into a bundled reference file to keep SKILL.md as a leaner overview.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Mostly efficient with a tool table and executable code blocks per phase; the Reasoning Strategy and evidence-grading prose add some length beyond strict necessity, though it is domain-specific rather than generic padding.

4 / 5

Actionability

Fully executable copy-paste-ready tool calls with real parameters, allele lists, percentile/IC50 thresholds, and interpretation tables covering the common cases across all six phases.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Clear six-phase sequence with an ASCII diagram and interpretation tables serving as checkpoints, but no explicit validate→fix→retry feedback loop for the batch prediction operations.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Well-structured overview that references one real one-level-deep bundle file (scripts/population_coverage.py) with inline signaled usage; minor organization gaps but easy to navigate.

Description

88%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong, specific description that clearly states capabilities and explicit use-conditions with concrete trigger phrases. Minor room for broader synonym coverage, but it is highly actionable and distinct.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — 'MHC-I/MHC-II epitope prediction (IEDB)', 'population HLA coverage optimization', 'B-cell epitope identification', and 'cross-strain conservation analysis' — giving comprehensive coverage of the skill's capabilities.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what ('Computational vaccine candidate design...') and when ('Use for vaccine epitope prediction, HLA allele coverage, multi-epitope construct design, and immunogenicity assessment') with concrete trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Good natural trigger coverage with 'vaccine epitope prediction', 'HLA allele coverage', 'multi-epitope construct design', and 'immunogenicity assessment'; a few natural synonyms are absent, just below the comprehensive anchor.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Clear vaccine-design niche with distinct triggers; minor overlap risk with the related HLA-immunogenomics skill, which the body explicitly disambiguates.
