Ontology SPARQL SELECT over OBO Foundry Ontologies (Ontobee)
ontobeesparql/sparql-select
Runs one read-only SPARQL SELECT over the Ontobee triple store (OBO Foundry and related ontologies such as the Disease Ontology, Gene Ontology, ChEBI, NCBI Taxonomy, DrOn and EFO) and returns the SPARQL JSON results. The outer query is capped at `limit` rows (default 100, at most 500); write no PREFIX lines and no # comments, the common prefixes (rdf, rdfs, owl, xsd, skos, dc, foaf) are predefined, and full-text search is available as ?label bif:contains '"phrase"'. Each ontology carries its own licence. Ontobee ontology data, passed through unmodified and served by Eden Engine; not an official Ontobee product.

// 1. search: find the tool
omnial_search({ query: "what you need" })
// 2. inspect: price and input schema
omnial_inspect({ tool: "ontobeesparql/sparql-select" })
// 3. learn: read the usage guide at runtime
omnial_learn({ tool: "ontobeesparql/sparql-select" })
// 4. run: price the exact call first, then run it
omnial_execute({ tool: "ontobeesparql/sparql-select", input: { /* see input_schema */ }, dry_run: true })
omnial_execute({ tool: "ontobeesparql/sparql-select", input: { /* ... */ } })
