| description | Submit compact Rhea reaction search requests for biochemical reactions and reaction IDs. Use when a user wants concise Rhea summaries |
Operating rules
- Use
scripts/rest_request.py for all Rhea calls.
- Use
base_url=https://www.rhea-db.org.
- Start with the
rhea search endpoint plus format=json.
- Keep queries narrow by reaction ID, compound name, EC number, or free-text reaction term.
- Re-run requests in long conversations instead of relying on older tool output.
Execution behavior
- Return concise markdown summaries from the script JSON by default.
- Return raw JSON only if the user explicitly asks for machine-readable output.
- Prefer these patterns: reaction search by
query, targeted ID search via query=RHEA:<id>, and small result windows.
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 Rhea patterns:
{"base_url":"https://www.rhea-db.org","path":"rhea","params":{"query":"caffeine","format":"json"},"record_path":"results","max_items":10}{"base_url":"https://www.rhea-db.org","path":"rhea","params":{"query":"RHEA:47148","format":"json"},"record_path":"results","max_items":5}
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://www.rhea-db.org","path":"rhea","params":{"query":"caffeine","format":"json"},"record_path":"results","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.
