What problem does it solve?
Generic AI prompting produces generic, regulator-rejectable safety paperwork: vague tasks, controls that collapse to PPE, actions with no owner, and personal data leaking into widely shared documents. This skill forces task specificity through structured intake, applies the hierarchy of controls with engineering containment before PPE, de-identifies sensitive health data, and runs a domain-expert sign-off before presenting any output.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Risk-Group → BSL Determination: Classifies the biological agent's risk group (RG1–RG4) first, then selects the biosafety level (BSL-1–BSL-4) with primary containment (biosafety-cabinet class, directional airflow, waste decontamination) before PPE.
- PHI Protection: Scrubs specimen-source-patient identities and worker serological-surveillance records to role labels, applies small-cell suppression, and never emits a re-identification key.
- Jurisdiction-Aware Compliance: Grounds assessments in CDC/NIH BMBL 6th ed, WHO Laboratory Biosafety Manual 4th ed, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1030, UK COSHH 2002, and India Bio-Medical Waste Management Rules 2016 as applicable.
