Use when a user wants concise ENCODE summaries\n---\n\n## Source presentation\n<!-- source-presentation-contract:v2 -->\n- Add claim-adjacent links only for substantive claims supported by returned `sources`; never cite empty, metadata-only, or failed lookups.\n- Preserve `checked_sources`, use only supported `canonical_url` mappings, and leave requested raw or machine-readable output unchanged.\n- Use the `encode-skill` entry in `../../references/source-links.json` and follow `../../references/source-presentation.md`.\n\n## Operating rules\n- Use `scripts/rest_request.py` for all ENCODE API calls.\n- Use `base_url=https://www.encodeproject.org`.\n- Object lookups usually do not need `max_items`; portal-style search endpoints are better with `limit=10` and `max_items=10`.\n- Send `Accept: application/json` in `headers` and add `format=json` in `params` when needed.\n- Keep request volume modest and avoid large unfiltered searches.\n- Re-run requests in long conversations instead of relying on older tool output.\n- Treat displayed `...` in tool previews as UI truncation, not literal request content.\n\n## Execution behavior\n- Return concise markdown summaries from the script JSON by default.\n- Prefer accession paths such as `biosamples/<accession>/` and search paths such as `search/`.\n- If the user needs the full payload, set `save_raw=true` and report the saved file path.\n\n## Input\n- Read one JSON object from stdin.\n- Required fields: `base_url`, `path`\n- Optional fields: `method`, `params`, `headers`, `json_body`, `form_body`, `record_path`, `response_format`, `max_items`, `max_depth`, `timeout_sec`, `save_raw`, `raw_output_path`\n- Common ENCODE patterns:\n  - `{\"base_url\":\"https://www.encodeproject.org\",\"path\":\"biosamples/ENCBS000AAA/\",\"params\":{\"frame\":\"object\",\"format\":\"json\"},\"headers\":{\"Accept\":\"application/json\"}}`\n  - `{\"base_url\":\"https://www.encodeproject.org\",\"path\":\"search/\",\"params\":{\"type\":\"Experiment\",\"assay_title\":\"RNA-seq\",\"limit\":10,\"format\":\"json\"},\"record_path\":\"@graph\",\"headers\":{\"Accept\":\"application/json\"},\"max_items\":10}`\n\n## Output\n- Success returns `ok`, `source`, `path`, `method`, `status_code`, `warnings`, and either compact `records` or a compact `summary`.\n- Use `raw_output_path` when `save_raw=true`.\n- Failure returns `ok=false` with `error.code` and `error.message`.\n\n## Execution\n```bash\necho '{\"base_url\":\"https://www.encodeproject.org\",\"path\":\"search/\",\"params\":{\"type\":\"Experiment\",\"assay_title\":\"RNA-seq\",\"limit\":10,\"format\":\"json\"},\"record_path\":\"@graph\",\"headers\":{\"Accept\":\"application/json\"},\"max_items\":10}' | python scripts/rest_request.py\n```\n"
