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