Capability review items (2)
Low
scripts/ensembl_query.py:83-86
HTTP requests to external Ensembl endpoints
The script issues outbound HTTP requests using requests library. Lines 83-86 show: "response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json=data)" and "response = requests.get(url, headers=headers, params=params)". This is expected for API access but still allows query data to leave the machine.
Low
scripts/ensembl_query.py:1
Executable Python CLI script present
The repository includes a runnable Python script with a shebang line at line 1: "#!/usr/bin/env python3". Executable scripts can be run by users but this is a standard CLI pattern for research tools.
