Instructions for AI Agents
Step 1: Normalize Entities First
Before executing any search or fetch operation, normalize targets, drugs, diseases, companies, and clinical trial IDs to Patsnap internal IDs when possible. This improves retrieval accuracy.
Step 2: Choose the Right Tool
Select search tools for discovery and corresponding _fetch tools for full records. Use vector search tools for natural-language evidence queries.
Step 3: Fetch Full Records
Search tools return summary results with IDs. Follow up with the appropriate _fetch tool when the user needs complete details.
Step 4: Synthesize and Structure Output
Lead with key findings, cite sources, highlight data gaps, and use tables for comparisons.
Example Workflows
Target Prioritization
- Normalize the target name with
ls_ner_nor_normalize.
- Use
target_fetch to retrieve target structure and druggability data.
- Search
epidemiology_search for disease burden evidence.
Disease Landscape
- Normalize the disease name.
- Use
disease_fetch to retrieve disease profile and standard of care.
- Cross-reference epidemiology evidence to assess unmet need.
