bio-clip-seq-clip-motif-analysis

bio-clip-seq-clip-motif-analysis is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from GPTomics/bioSkills. It costs 138 tokens per session (5,796 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A motif-analysis workflow for CLIP-seq, which measures where RNA-binding proteins attach to RNA. It finds short RNA sequence patterns enriched at binding sites and accounts for biases caused by UV crosslinking.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to discover and compare binding motifs from CLIP peaks or exact crosslink positions, including checks with additional binding datasets.
Why use it?
It helps distinguish a real protein-binding preference from misleading patterns created by the experiment or by poor background choices.

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

bio-clip-seq-clip-motif-analysis 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 1 executable file (examples/find_motifs.sh), 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 289 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: HOMER 4.11+, MEME Suite 5.5+ (STREME, MEME-ChIP, FIMO), bedtools 2.31+, kpLogo 1.1+, mCross v1+, PEKA v1+, RBPamp 0.9+, ggseqlogo 0.1+, biopython 1.83+.

Before using code patterns, verify installed versions match. If versions differ:

  • CLI: <tool> --version then <tool> --help to confirm flags
  • Python: pip show <package> then help(module.function) to check signatures

If code throws unexpected errors, introspect the installed tool and adapt the example to match the actual API rather than retrying.

CLIP-seq Motif Analysis

"Find enriched RNA motifs at my RBP binding sites" -> Discover the in vivo sequence preference of an RNA-binding protein from CLIP-seq peaks or single-nucleotide crosslink sites. The fundamental confound is the uracil bias of UV254 crosslinking: U is the most-crosslinked base, so naive motif logos centered on CL positions are U-enriched even for non-U-binding RBPs. Modern tools (mCross, PEKA) register motifs relative to the CL position and correct for this bias; legacy tools (HOMER, MEME) need careful background selection.

  • CLI (de novo, peak-based, HOMER RNA mode): findMotifs.pl peaks.fa fasta motif_out -rna -len 5,6,7,8 -p 4
  • CLI (de novo, peak-based, MEME-ChIP / STREME): streme --rna --oc streme_out -p peaks.fa -n background.fa --minw 5 --maxw 10
  • CLI (positional, single-nt CL-registered, mCross): mCross -i crosslinks.bed -g genome.fa -k 7 -o mcross_out (jointly models motif + CL position)
  • CLI (positional k-mer, no input control needed, PEKA): peka --peak_file_name peaks.bed --crosslinks_file_name crosslinks.bed --genome_file_name genome.fa --regions_file_name regions.bed --kmer_length 5 --percentile 30 --outpath peka_out (the short flags -i/-x/-g/-r/-k/-p shown in earlier docs are not all stable; use the long forms or check peka --help)
  • CLI (affinity-weighted, RBPamp): rbpamp run -i peaks.fa -k 7 -o rbpamp_out (joint affinity + motif model)
  • CLI (positional logo, kpLogo): kpLogo crosslinks_with_kmer_scores.txt -o kplogo_out (position-specific significance)

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.
