deeptools

deeptools is a skill for Claude Code from dralkh/iktinah. It costs 51 tokens per session (4,545 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of deeptools, MIT.

A set of command-line tools for processing and comparing high-throughput DNA sequencing data. It can convert alignment files into coverage tracks, check data quality, compare samples, and create heatmaps and profile plots for experiments such as ChIP-seq, RNA-seq, and ATAC-seq.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to convert BAM files to bigWig or bedGraph tracks, assess sequencing quality, compare treatment and control samples, run correlation or principal component analysis, and visualize signal around transcription start sites or peaks.
Why use it?
It removes repetitive preparation and quality-checking work from sequencing analysis. It helps researchers see whether samples agree, whether sequencing coverage is adequate, and where signals occur around genomic regions.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

deeptools scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/validate_files.py, scripts/workflow_generator.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

deepTools: NGS Data Analysis Toolkit

Overview

deepTools is a comprehensive suite of Python command-line tools designed for processing and analyzing high-throughput sequencing data. Use deepTools to perform quality control, normalize data, compare samples, and generate publication-quality visualizations for ChIP-seq, RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, MNase-seq, and other NGS experiments.

Core capabilities:

  • Convert BAM alignments to normalized coverage tracks (bigWig/bedGraph)
  • Quality control assessment (fingerprint, correlation, coverage)
  • Sample comparison and correlation analysis
  • Heatmap and profile plot generation around genomic features
  • Enrichment analysis and peak region visualization

When to Use This Skill

This skill should be used when:

  • File conversion: "Convert BAM to bigWig", "generate coverage tracks", "normalize ChIP-seq data"
  • Quality control: "check ChIP quality", "compare replicates", "assess sequencing depth", "QC analysis"
  • Visualization: "create heatmap around TSS", "plot ChIP signal", "visualize enrichment", "generate profile plot"
  • Sample comparison: "compare treatment vs control", "correlate samples", "PCA analysis"
  • Analysis workflows: "analyze ChIP-seq data", "RNA-seq coverage", "ATAC-seq analysis", "complete workflow"
  • Working with specific file types: BAM files, bigWig files, BED region files in genomics context

Quick Start

For users new to deepTools, start with file validation and common workflows:

1. Validate Input Files

Before running any analysis, validate BAM, bigWig, and BED files using the validation script:

python scripts/validate_files.py --bam sample1.bam sample2.bam --bed regions.bed

This checks file existence, BAM indices, and format correctness.

2. Generate Workflow Template

For standard analyses, use the workflow generator to create customized scripts:

# List available workflows
python scripts/workflow_generator.py --list

# Generate ChIP-seq QC workflow
python scripts/workflow_generator.py chipseq_qc -o qc_workflow.sh \
    --input-bam Input.bam --chip-bams "ChIP1.bam ChIP2.bam" \
    --genome-size 2913022398

# Make executable and run
chmod +x qc_workflow.sh
./qc_workflow.sh

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
