Install
Skills CLI
npx skills add KevinSpringer1/conserved-primer-design
Asks which skills and agents to install. Just one: npx skills add KevinSpringer1/conserved-primer-design --skill virusprimerpro-agent-api — add -g for every project.
Claude Code
git clone https://github.com/KevinSpringer1/conserved-primer-designcp -r "conserved-primer-design/agentskill" ~/.claude/skills/
Copies the virusprimerpro-agent-api skill into ~/.claude/skills/ for every project (use .claude/skills/ for one project). Repeat for the other skills listed below.
Plugin
/plugin marketplace add KevinSpringer1/conserved-primer-design
Run inside Claude Code if the repository ships a plugin marketplace, then pick plugins from /plugin.
Skills can run code on your machine — read the SKILL.md first.
What it does
In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md.
-
virusprimerpro-agent-api
Use when an agent needs to call the VirusPrimerPro Agent API instead of the GUI, or prepare viral genome inputs for it: request/use API keys, download viral genomes from NCBI, install/run MAFFT, check and repair abnormal sequences, prepare phylogenetic trees/annotations, upload aligned FASTA/tree/GenBank files, poll runs, and fetch artifacts.

advanced-phylogeny
Use when an agent needs a stricter or publication-grade phylogeny workflow for PhyloGuide, including tree/MSA validation, FastTree/IQ-TREE planning, and external-tree checks.
agentskill/skills/advanced-phylogeny/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
literature-taxonomy-curation
Use when an agent must define viral genotype, subtype, clade, lineage, target/background groups, or PhyloGuide groups from cited literature before primer or tNGS panel design.
agentskill/skills/literature-taxonomy-curation/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
panel-interaction-balancing
Use when an agent must split tNGS or multiplex primer pairs into pools while minimizing primer-primer interaction risk and reporting pool overflows.
agentskill/skills/panel-interaction-balancing/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
primer-wetlab-qc
Use when an agent must evaluate primer candidates for wet-lab constraints such as length, GC, Tm, degeneracy, self-complementarity, pair complementarity, and amplicon size.
agentskill/skills/primer-wetlab-qc/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
reference-dataset-curation
Use when an agent must select, filter, deduplicate, and document NCBI/GenBank/reference viral genomes before alignment, primer design, PhyloGuide, or tNGS panel design.
agentskill/skills/reference-dataset-curation/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
run-orchestration
Use when an agent must batch-submit, poll, summarize, retry, or compare long-running VirusPrimerPro Agent API jobs without holding a long HTTP connection open.
agentskill/skills/run-orchestration/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
specificity-screening
Use when an agent must screen primer candidates or tNGS panel primers for host, near-neighbor, background, or co-infection off-target binding before reporting or ordering primers.
agentskill/skills/specificity-screening/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
tngs-panel-design
Use when an agent must turn primer pair candidates into a tiled or multiplex tNGS amplicon panel with target coverage, overlap, selected pairs, and uncovered gap reporting.
agentskill/skills/tngs-panel-design/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
validation-report
Use when an agent must combine taxonomy, accession manifest, specificity, primer QC, and panel reports into a reproducible design release report.
agentskill/skills/validation-report/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
wetlab-export
Use when an agent must convert selected and pooled primer pairs into order sheets, pooling plans, and 96-well plate maps for wet-lab handoff.
agentskill/skills/wetlab-export/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab)
No skill matches that filter.
Review before you install
A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
