BioMCP ships one embedded guide plus supporting reference files for agent workflows. The current workflow is:
biomcp skill
biomcp skill install ~/.claudebiomcp skill prints the embedded skills/SKILL.md overview. Start there if
you want the current BioMCP workflow guidance without installing anything into
an agent directory.
Install the embedded skills/ tree into your agent directory:
biomcp skill install ~/.claudeForce replacement of an existing install:
biomcp skill install ~/.claude --forceThe dir argument can point at an agent root such as ~/.claude, an existing
skills/ directory, or a skills/biomcp/ directory. When you omit dir,
BioMCP attempts supported agent-directory detection in your home directory and
the current working tree, then prompts before installing when stdin is a TTY.
Current builds install the full embedded reference tree into
<agent>/skills/biomcp/, including:
SKILL.mdjq-examples.mdexamples/schemas/
biomcp skill list remains as a legacy compatibility alias and currently prints
No skills found.
Numeric and slug lookups are also legacy compatibility paths. Commands such as
biomcp skill 03 and biomcp skill variant-to-treatment currently fail with a
clear not-found message and suggest biomcp skill.
