A collection of SKILLS.md files that give AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, etc.) expert knowledge for bioinformatics workflows, from sequence manipulation to single-cell RNA-seq and variant calling. It includes installers for various agent CLIs and is evaluated against the Bio-Task Bench dataset.

Use cases

  • teach claude code how to write bioinformatics code
  • help an AI agent run single-cell RNA-seq analysis
  • guide agents through variant calling workflows
  • get idiomatic pysam and biopython code from an LLM
  • install domain expertise skills into coding agents
  • improve agent accuracy on computational biology tasks

When to choose

  • you use AI coding agents for genomics or computational biology work
  • you want curated best-practice patterns for bioinformatics libraries like DESeq2, Seurat, or pysam
  • you want a benchmarked starting point for agent skills you can fork and customize

When to avoid

  • you need actively maintained skills with bug fixes (the repo is archived)
  • your domain is outside bioinformatics
  • you want a runtime library rather than prompt/skill files
