Add Conserved Primer Design skill

[KevinSpringer1]

Summary

Adds Conserved Primer Design to the Science-Specific / Specialized Domain Tools section.

Why this is useful for scientific research

Conserved Primer Design is an MIT-licensed Agent Skill package for calling the VirusPrimerPro website API to run conserved primer, PhyloGuide, and tNGS amplicon panel workflows. It gives agents reusable helpers for API submission/polling/artifact download, NCBI/MAFFT preparation, taxonomy/reference curation, specificity screening, primer wet-lab QC, panel pooling, and validation reports.

Curation checks

• Scientific relevance: bioinformatics/genomics primer and tNGS panel design workflow.
• Documentation: README, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, VS Code/Copilot instructions, main SKILL.md, and task-specific SKILL.md files.
• License: MIT.
• Public link: https://github.com/KevinSpringer1/conserved-primer-design
• Security: API keys are documented as environment variables; no secrets are committed.

Code Review

This pull request adds a new entry to the upstream repositories table in readme.md for the conserved-primer-design repository. The feedback suggests formatting the description to bold the core offering for consistency with other entries and reminds the author to synchronize this change with the Chinese translation in readme_CN.md.

Important

The consumer version of Gemini Code Assist on GitHub is being sunset. Starting June 18, 2026, new organization installations will be blocked, and all code review activity will officially cease on July 17, 2026.
For more details on the timeline and next steps, please review the Help Documentation.

To maintain consistency with the other entries in this table, please consider bolding the core offering at the beginning of the description (similar to **148+ scientific skills** and **140 validated life-science computational skills**). Additionally, since this repository maintains a parallel Chinese translation in readme_CN.md, please remember to add the corresponding translated entry under the 专业领域工具（最高优先级） section in readme_CN.md to keep the documentation synchronized.
