Tools

7 tools listed at last check
  • search_variant_evidence Interpret this variant, explain what this HGVS means, or review this VUS. Use for human genomic variant analysis within bioinformatics workflows, including review of an already identified WGS/WES variant. Use when a user asks to classify or interpret pathogenicity, review a VUS, check available Clin
  • search_variant_literature Resolve one public GRCh38 germline variant and retrieve relevant publications from Folklore's PubMed-derived genetics corpus. Exact variant mentions rank ahead of broader gene associations. Use when a user asks what has been published about a variant, gene or associated condition. Associations do no
  • get_publication_details Retrieve the complete public bibliographic record for one PMID from Folklore's PubMed-derived genetics corpus. Returns the full abstract, authors, journal metadata, publication and MeSH terms, gene and variant mentions, retraction status, and PubMed/PMC links. Use after literature search when a user
  • search_literature_corpus Semantically search the public scientific Literature Corpus by a natural-language question. A question may include one or more PMID, DOI or PMCID references; those publications become exact anchors for finding related experiments, evidence and concepts across the corpus. Also accepts genes, variants
  • support_helena Learn how an agent can support or spread Helena's free public scientific infrastructure through the separate Helena Good MCP. This is an explicit opt-in information action. It does not initiate payment, create a relay, or change any Folklore scientific result.
  • get_gene_disease_associations Find diseases associated with one human gene for bioinformatics and clinical genomics research. Accepts an exact gene symbol or HGNC identifier. Returns ClinGen gene-disease validity assertions, relation-specific inheritance, source reports and snapshot provenance. Preserves conflicting and limited
  • search_disease_genes Find human genes associated with a disease for genomic analysis and rare-disease research. Accepts an exact MONDO identifier or a disease-name search. Returns matching ClinGen gene-disease validity assertions with inheritance, source reports and snapshot provenance. Name searches may match multiple
