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

# Lobster AI Development Guide

**Lobster AI** is a multi-agent bioinformatics platform using LangGraph for orchestration.
This skill teaches you how to work with, extend, and contribute to the codebase.

| **Creating new agents** | [references/creating-agents.md](references/creating-agents.md) |
| **Creating new services** | [references/creating-services.md](references/creating-services.md) |

## Critical Rules

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