track-experiments SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

track-experiments from ammawla/encode-toolkit is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

mdr add ammawla/encode-toolkit/track-experiments@git:20260921.7231da8

Pins git:20260921.7231da8 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Track ENCODE experiments locally with publications, citations, and provenance. Use when the user wants to build a collection of experiments, manage citations, compare experiments, or track data provenance.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Track ENCODE Experiments

## When to Use

- User wants to save/bookmark ENCODE experiments for later reference
- User needs to build a collection of experiments for a project
- User asks to "track", "save", or "bookmark" an experiment
- User wants to manage citations and publications for ENCODE data
- User needs to compare experiments for compatibility
- User wants to export their experiment collection as CSV/TSV/JSON
- User asks about data provenance (linking derived files to ENCODE sources)

Help the user manage their local collection of ENCODE experiments. This skill covers the full lifecycle of experiment management: discovery, tracking, annotation, citation, comparison, provenance, and export.

## Tracking Capabilities

1. **Track an experiment**: Use `encode_track_experiment` to save experiment metadata, publications, and pipeline info locally.
   - Automatically extracts GEO accessions and PMIDs from experiment metadata
   - Fetches associated publications with authors, journal, DOI
   - Stores 18 metadata fields per experiment (see schema below)
   - Idempotent: re-tracking the same accession updates metadata without creating duplicates

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add ammawla/encode-toolkit/track-experiments@sha256:0809a4d26f8955a9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260921.7231da8, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
