Biocompatibility Test Selector Skill
Purpose
The Biocompatibility Test Selector Skill recommends appropriate biocompatibility tests and protocols based on device categorization, supporting biological evaluation planning and test laboratory coordination.
Capabilities
- Test battery recommendation by category
- ISO 10993 part selection guidance
- Test lab capability assessment
- Protocol review checklist
- In vitro vs. in vivo decision support
- Alternative testing approaches (21st century toxicology)
- Cost and timeline estimation
- Sample requirement calculation
- Control material selection
- Test article preparation guidance
- Results interpretation support
Usage Guidelines
When to Use
- Selecting biocompatibility tests
- Planning testing programs
- Evaluating alternative methods
- Coordinating with test laboratories
Prerequisites
- Device categorization completed
- Materials characterized
- Testing gaps identified
- Budget and timeline constraints known
Best Practices
- Prioritize in vitro methods where validated
- Consider 3Rs (Replace, Reduce, Refine)
- Select appropriate positive/negative controls
- Plan for sufficient sample quantities
Process Integration
This skill integrates with the following processes:
- Biological Evaluation Planning (ISO 10993)
- Biomaterial Selection and Characterization
- 510(k) Premarket Submission Preparation
- EU MDR Technical Documentation
Dependencies
- ISO 10993 test standards

gsd-tools
Central utility skill for GSD operations. Provides config parsing, slug generation, timestamps, path operations, and orchestrates calls to other specialized skills. Acts as the unified entry point that the original gsd-tools.cjs provided via its lib/ modules (commands, config, core, init).
model-profile-resolution
Resolve model profile (quality/balanced/budget) at orchestration start and map agents to specific models. Enables cost/quality tradeoffs by selecting appropriate AI models for each agent role.
verification-suite
Plan structure validation, phase completeness checks, reference integrity verification, and artifact existence confirmation. Provides the structured verification layer ensuring GSD artifacts are well-formed and complete.
state-management
STATE.md reading, writing, and field-level updates. Provides cross-session state persistence via .planning/STATE.md with structured fields for current task, completed phases, blockers, decisions, and quick tasks.
git-integration
Git commit patterns, formats, and conventions for GSD methodology. Provides atomic commits per task, structured commit messages, planning file commits, branch management, and milestone tag operations.
frontmatter-parsing
YAML frontmatter parsing and manipulation for .planning/ documents. Provides read, write, update, query, and validation operations on frontmatter blocks in GSD markdown artifacts.
