The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 6 mappings to external registries for cosmic with 3 unique external prefixes.

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE cosmic:BRAF is used to demonstrate the provides available for cosmic. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic logic beyond string formatting.
