Validation

  • Use the Yavira download entry.
  • Review SKILL.md after the package is downloaded.
  • Confirm the extracted package contains the expected setup assets.

Install with your agent

Agent handoff

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.

  1. Download the package from Yavira.
  2. Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
  3. Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
New install

I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.

Upgrade existing

I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.

Critical Rules

ComponentRegistry is truth — Agents discovered via entry points, NOT hardcoded AGENT_CONFIG at module top — Define before heavy imports for <50ms discovery Services return 3-tuple — (AnnData, Dict, AnalysisStep) always Always pass ir — log_tool_usage(..., ir=ir) for reproducibility No lobster/__init__.py — PEP 420 namespace package

Quick Commands

# Setup (development) make dev-install # Full dev setup with editable install make test # Run all tests make format # black + isort # Setup (end-user testing via uv tool) uv tool install 'lobster-ai[full,anthropic]' # Install as users see it uv tool upgrade lobster-ai # Upgrade to latest # Running lobster chat # Interactive mode lobster query "your request" # Single-turn # Testing pytest tests/unit/ # Fast unit tests pytest tests/integration/ # Integration tests

Service Pattern (Essential)

All services return a 3-tuple: def analyze(self, adata, **params) -> Tuple[AnnData, Dict, AnalysisStep]: # Your analysis logic stats = {"n_cells": adata.n_obs, "status": "complete"} ir = AnalysisStep( activity_type="analyze", inputs={"n_obs": adata.n_obs}, outputs=stats, params=params ) return processed_adata, stats, ir Tools wrap services: @tool def analyze_modality(modality_name: str, **params) -> str: result, stats, ir = service.analyze(adata, **params) data_manager.log_tool_usage("analyze", params, stats, ir=ir) # IR mandatory! return f"Complete: {stats}"

Agent Registration (Entry Points)

Agents register via pyproject.toml: [project.entry-points."lobster.agents"] my_agent = "lobster.agents.my_domain.my_agent:AGENT_CONFIG" AGENT_CONFIG must be defined at module top (before imports): # lobster/agents/mydomain/my_agent.py from lobster.config.agent_registry import AgentRegistryConfig AGENT_CONFIG = AgentRegistryConfig( name="my_agent", display_name="My Expert Agent", description="What this agent does", factory_function="lobster.agents.mydomain.my_agent.my_agent", handoff_tool_name="handoff_to_my_agent", handoff_tool_description="Assign tasks for my domain analysis", tier_requirement="free", # All official agents are free ) # Heavy imports AFTER config from lobster.core.data_manager_v2 import DataManagerV2 # ... rest of implementation

Adding a New Agent

Create package: packages/lobster-mydomain/ Define AGENT_CONFIG at top of agent file Register entry point in pyproject.toml Implement agent with tools Add tests in tests/unit/agents/ See references/creating-agents.md for full guide.

Adding a New Service

Create service class in appropriate package Implement 3-tuple return pattern Wrap in tool with log_tool_usage Add unit tests See references/creating-services.md for full guide.

Understanding Data Flow

User Query → CLI → LobsterClientAdapter → AgentClient ↓ LangGraph (supervisor → agents) ↓ Services → DataManagerV2 ↓ Results + Provenance

Testing

# Unit tests (fast, no external deps) pytest tests/unit/ -v # Integration tests (may need env vars) pytest tests/integration/ -v # Specific test pytest tests/unit/test_my_feature.py -v # With coverage pytest --cov=lobster tests/
