Tools

• ask ~288 tokens
  Ask Sniff a natural-language canine-genetics question and get a GROUNDED, CITED answer (or an honest abstain). Covers inherited diseases (OMIA) and their human homologs (the dog<->human disease bridge), breed disease/carrier risk, variant pathogenicity grades (AVCG; Boeykens et al. 2024, curated in
• ask_the_graph ~432 tokens
  THE INSTRUMENT — ask a free-form CROSS-SPECIES genetics question and get FILTERED, HONEST HINTS (never a confident guess). It compiles your question into a typed query plan over the dog<->human edge-graph, runs it deterministically, and scores each answer PATH by its weakest edge — returning ranked
• ask_variant_context ~202 tokens
  THE headline query. Given a CanFam4 position (e.g. '5:56189113'), return the variant's global + popmax frequency, breed-stratified cross-breed frequencies, Pangolin and phyloP annotations, gene context, linked diseases (v1.1), provenance, and deep links — in one call. Pass breed_context to also get
• breed_similarity ~87 tokens
  Genetic distance between two breeds (top-10-PC Euclidean). Lower = more genetically similar.
• breed_summary ~80 tokens
  Breed profile: n_dogs, breed group, genetic geometry and nearest breeds. Descriptive only — not a health ranking.
• breed_variant_frequency ~129 tokens
  Breed-stratified allele frequency. Give a breed (e.g. 'bernese_mountain_dog') plus either a variant position or a gene symbol. Returns AF (+ rank) for the variant, or per-variant AFs in the gene.
• breeds_in_atlas ~54 tokens
  List all 188 breeds with breed-stratified frequencies in the atlas.
• disease_bridge ~189 tokens
  The fused OMIA disease layer as cited atoms. Give a `disease` (name or 'OMIA:001870-9615') for its genes, inheritance, human homolog (OMIM/Mondo bridge), and variant pathogenicity grade (AVCG, ACMG/AMP 5-tier, curated in OMIA) when graded. Or give a `breed` (e.g. 'doberman_pinscher') for the inherit
• disease_links ~215 tokens
  A canine inherited disease (name or OMIA id) -> its governed OMIA clinical record: mode of inheritance, causal gene(s), curated description (summary / clinical features / molecular genetics / pathology / prevalence), clinical signs as HP/MP phenotype terms (-> Monarch), the human OMIM analog + Mondo
• disease_lookup ~156 tokens
  Look up a canine inherited disease by name or OMIA id -> its governed OMIA clinical record (inheritance, causal gene(s), curated description, clinical signs, human OMIM analog + Mondo id, evidence base). Sourced to OMIA (CC-BY); returns a canonical sniff.world URL. Dog-only. For candidate disambigua
• gene_summary ~121 tokens
  Variants in a gene (by gene symbol), ranked by impact then allele frequency. Paginated (limit, default 25); returns total_variants. Use af_min to filter by global AF.
• genes_indexed ~63 tokens
  Top genes by number of variants in the atlas (discovery aid).
• metadata ~60 tokens
  Atlas metadata: release, DOI, assembly, variant/breed counts, scope banner, and the RPC catalog.
• nearest_breeds ~111 tokens
  Genetically nearest breeds to the given breed (top-10-PC Euclidean in canine genetic space). Answers 'what breeds are most genetically similar to X?' via the PCA-256 breed co-embedding.
• search_diseases ~109 tokens
  Search the canine disease catalogue by free text -> ranked candidates [{omia_id, disease, url, score}]. Use before disease_lookup when the exact name is unknown. Dog-only.
• semantic_search ~262 tokens
  Faceted hybrid + semantic-ranker search over the whole knowledge base (diseases, breeds, Scout discoveries). Use for fuzzy/thematic intent ('drug sensitivity in herding dogs', 'breeds prone to eye disease', 'genetically diverse breeds'). entity_type filters to 'disease'|'breed'|'discovery'. filters
• variant_lookup ~93 tokens
  Single-variant lookup by CanFam4 position: ref/alt, global + popmax AF, consequence, gene, Pangolin and phyloP annotations, canonical URL, provenance.
• variant_search ~211 tokens
  Filtered discovery over all 9.67M variants. Predicates (combine freely): phylop_min (phyloP >=), popmax_min (popmax AF >=), gene_in (list of gene symbols), consequence, impact (HIGH/MODERATE/LOW/MODIFIER). Returns total_count + a capped list (max 200). Note: popmax may be in a wild population (dingo
