Use when a user wants concise PMC Open Access summaries; save raw XML only on request.\n---\n\n## Operating rules\n- Use `scripts/ncbi_pmc.py` for all PMC Open Access calls in this package.\n- This skill is intentionally narrow: it currently covers the PMC Open Access service rather than the full PMC API surface.\n- Pass endpoint-specific query parameters under `params`, typically `id` for a PMCID or DOI-style lookup supported by the OA service.\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 output by default.\n- Return raw XML only if the user explicitly asks for machine-readable output.\n- Prefer targeted endpoint calls instead of broad unfiltered dumps.\n- If the user needs the full raw response, set `save_raw=true` and report the saved file path.\n\n## Input\n- Read one JSON object from stdin.\n- Optional fields: `params`, `record_path`, `max_items`, `max_depth`, `timeout_sec`, `save_raw`, `raw_output_path`\n- Common PMC Open Access patterns:\n - `{\"params\":{\"id\":\"PMC3257301\"},\"max_items\":10}`\n - `{\"params\":{\"id\":\"10.1093/nar/gkr1184\"},\"max_items\":10}`\n\n## Output\n- Success returns `ok`, `source`, and 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 '{\"params\":{\"id\":\"PMC3257301\"},\"max_items\":10}' | python scripts/ncbi_pmc.py\n```\n\n## References\n- No additional runtime references are required; keep the import package limited to this file and `scripts/ncbi_pmc.py`.\n"
