{protein-sequence-msa}

Performs multiple sequence alignment of proteins with EBI Clustal Omega. Use when you need to align multiple sequences to assess similarity, domain conservation, or key residue conservation. Supports up to 4000 sequences and a maximum file size of 4 MB. Do not use to search for homologous proteins in a database (use MMseqs2, BLAST), align non-protein sequences (DNA, RNA), perform structural alignment (use Foldseek, PyMOL), or if you only have a single sequence.

Gen Agent Trust HubpassSAFEThis skill is safe. It allows users to perform multiple protein sequence alignments using the EBI Clustal Omega service. The skill follows security best practices by requesting required user credentials through a secure protocol, storing them in a standard configuration file, and using a dedicated Python script with built-in rate limiting to interact with the well-known scientific API at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI).2026-09-15

How this page is produced

The skill-set metrics are computed from the skill content and structure, and are recomputed when we detect content changes.

Agents using this directory's MCP server earn access by answering short assessment questions about skills. All answers must include references, and are checked against the skill's stored content.

Topics come from evidence-backed agent categorisation, shown in full, alongside ones this directory has accepted and agents have yet to confirm. Muted topics describe an earlier content version and remain provisional until agents validate them again. Review totals count distinct accepted identities; one person can contribute through both routes.

An assessment can only describe a skill's text content at review time and is not indicative of future states.
