LatchBio agent skills for Claude Code, Cursor and RevampKey

3 ready-made playbooks that teach an AI agent how to do real LatchBio work: which tools to call, what to check first, and when to stop and ask you.

Download RevampKey, free I have it: connect LatchBio

Connect LatchBio once and all 3 skills install themselves and stay up to date. Mac, Windows and Linux.

All 3 LatchBio skills

Each skill is one job. You ask in plain words and the agent loads the skill that matches, then follows its steps.

Start hereRead-only9 LatchBio tools

Use the LatchBio connector safely

Walks you through the LatchBio MCP connector: confirms your workspace first, picks the right tool for files, workflows and runs, and asks before anything is launched.

Use it when

You have just connected LatchBio and want to know what it can do
You need to find a file or browse available workflows without flooding the chat
You are about to launch a workflow and want the approval step handled properly

Tools it uses

list_workspaces
list_files
get_file
list_workflows
get_workflow_schema
list_executions
get_execution
get_task_logs
launch_workflow

Example

Connect to my LatchBio lab workspace and show me which workflow runs failed this week.

Your default workspace is 'Genomics Lab'. Before I read anything, can you confirm that is the right one? I see 2 other workspaces you could mean. Once you confirm, I'll filter to failed runs from this week and show the count and names only, not full logs.

Read-only7 LatchBio tools

Launch a LatchBio workflow safely with AI

Reads a workflow's schema, checks every input against it, and asks you to confirm the chargeable run before launching. Records the execution so you can track it.

Use it when

You want to run a Latch workflow on a new dataset without a bad input wasting compute
You need to re-run a workflow with different parameters and want them checked first
You are unsure which file or setting a workflow expects

Tools it uses

list_workspaces
list_workflows
get_workflow_schema
list_files
get_file
launch_workflow
get_execution

Example

Launch the variant calling workflow on the new sample folder in my lab workspace, but check the inputs first.

The variant calling workflow needs a reference genome and a reads file, and both are set. Your reads file is in the samples folder. I have not launched yet: confirm the workspace and parameters below and reply yes to start the run.

Triage LatchBio workflow runs with AI

Checks your LatchBio workflow executions, finds the failed and stalled ones, pulls the logs that explain each failure, and reports the likely cause and next step. It only reads; it never relaunches or cancels a run without asking.

Use it when

A run failed overnight and you want to know which task broke it
Several executions look stuck and you need to decide whether to wait
You want a status summary of a workspace before a lab meeting

Tools it uses

list_workspaces
list_executions
get_execution
get_task_logs

Example

Which of my workflow runs failed overnight in the genomics workspace, and why?

In the genomics workspace, 3 of 12 runs failed overnight. Two stopped at alignment with out-of-memory errors in the task logs, and one stopped on a missing input file in the sample sheet. The alignment failures look like a resource limit, so a relaunch with more memory would probably work, but that would be a new chargeable run, so I've left it for you to decide.

How LatchBio skills work

Connect LatchBio
The LatchBio MCP server gives the agent its tools.
Ask in plain words
“Launch the variant calling workflow on the new sample folder in my lab workspace, but check the inputs first.” Each SKILL.md says when it applies, so only the one that fits is loaded.
Approve any change
The agent calls the tools in order, checks its work, and shows you any change before it makes it.

How to install LatchBio skills

In RevampKey the skills install themselves when you connect LatchBio. In other tools each skill is one folder with a SKILL.md file, and you also need the LatchBio MCP server connected there.

LatchBio skills FAQ

What is a LatchBio agent skill?

A SKILL.md file: a short playbook an AI agent loads when your request matches it. Each LatchBio skill describes one job, which LatchBio tools to use in which order, what to check first and when to stop and ask you.

Do the LatchBio skills change anything on their own?

3 of the 3 only read. The others tell the agent to show you the change and wait for a yes before it creates, edits or deletes anything in LatchBio.

Which tools can use these skills?

Any agent that reads the open Agent Skills format: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code with Copilot and RevampKey. In RevampKey they are attached when you connect LatchBio; elsewhere you copy the folders into your project or skills directory.

Do I need the LatchBio MCP server too?

Yes. The skills tell the agent how to do the work; the LatchBio MCP server gives it the tools to do it. The LatchBio MCP setup guide covers every client.
