## Operating rules - Use `scripts/ncbi_datasets.py` for all Datasets v2 calls in this package. - Use explicit REST `path` values relative to `https://api.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/datasets/v2`. - Prefer targeted metadata paths instead of broad unfiltered pulls. - Re-run requests in long conversations instead of relying on older tool output. - Treat displayed `...` in tool previews as UI truncation, not literal request content. ## Execution behavior - Return concise markdown summaries from the script output by default. - Return raw JSON or text only if the user explicitly asks for machine-readable output. - Prefer targeted endpoint calls instead of broad unfiltered dumps. - If the user needs the full raw response, set `save_raw=true` and report the saved file path. ## Input - Read one JSON object from stdin. - Required field: `path` - Optional fields: `params`, `record_path`, `response_format`, `max_items`, `max_depth`, `timeout_sec`, `save_raw`, `raw_output_path` - Common Datasets patterns: - `{"path":"genome/taxon/9606/dataset_report","params":{"page_size":10},"record_path":"reports","max_items":10}` - `{"path":"genome/accession/GCF_000001405.40/dataset_report"}` - `{"path":"taxonomy/taxon/9606"}` ## Output - Success returns `ok`, `source`, path metadata, and either compact `records`, a compact `summary`, or `text_head`. - Use `raw_output_path` when `save_raw=true`. - Failure returns `ok=false` with `error.code` and `error.message`. ## Execution ```bash echo '{"path":"genome/taxon/9606/dataset_report","params":{"page_size":10},"record_path":"reports","max_items":10}' | python scripts/ncbi_datasets.py ``` ## References - No additional runtime references are required; keep the import package limited to this file and `scripts/ncbi_datasets.py`.
